Tour De France Exact Route

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

I have seen alot of posts about the route for the Tour this year. I am going over for the last week in the Alps and had the same problem. I did however find an awesome sight that let me find the exact route. The sight is called www.viamichelin.com (like mapquest on speed. You can enter the start city and then (if you have the latest Cyclesport or Velo) find the col's and towns it list on the route. It really is more simple than it sounds. Good Luck

Hi. Seems a lot of people are struggling to find the exact towns and villages on the TDF route - I have trawlled through Google for hours with no joy!

This Michelin site looks promising - I tried putting in the start of the stage which I am heading to (Valreas) but not sure what I am supposed to click on next to get into the TDF bit - am I being stoooopid?!

Any help on this would be great i think this site represents the last chance saloon for me!

Thanks
Mark

Mark- The Michelin site does not have a TDF part to it. What I did was take each stage and the intermediate parts of the stage that are listed in either velonews.com (04 TDF section) or the Cycle sport TDF Guide. From the start of the stage town you can then look for the intermediate towns or mountains on the viamichelin map. By doing this I was able to find the exact roads of the stages that I will be at. Hope this helps.
