On the podium:

One last message before we say goodbye to the Tour de France Femmes: Alan has emailed in to say that now the Tour has concluded, he is off for a bike ride. Seems like a good idea. I hope you have better weather than I do here in rainy London (I’m currently sat sheltering inside Herne Hill Velodrome with a bunch of racers).

Alan writes: “I usually ride before catching your live commentary. Sundays are a bit slower, but gotta ride now! Thanks for the great coverage. Good result, although I was hoping Niewiadoma would pull off a faster time, cool though!”

Vollering speaks … “I still cant believe it,” she says. “ Of course I worked hard, but it’s not just working hard… it’s believing in it. It’s so much together, and in the end you have a dream. You work really hard for it but you need to keep yourself a bit calm and find a good balance in your life also. You have to find a relaxed way to do it. This year I feel really comfortable and good in what I’m doing.”

Van Vleuten has spoken also … asked how she feels after today’s time trial, she answers with one word: “disappointment”. She goes on to explain that she already thought she wouldn’t do well in today’s stage as she didn’t feel great last night, but she had hoped for better anyway. “I was not good the last two days,” she says.

Top five on the General Classification after stage eight

1. Demi Vollering (SD Worx) 25hr 17min 35sec 2. Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx) +3min 03sec 3. Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon//Sram) +3min 03sec 4. Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar) +3min 59sec 5. Juliette Labous (DSM-Firmenich) +4min 48sec

Demi Vollering wins the Tour de France Femmes 2023

Vollering secured her win yesterday really, but this is the official confirmation that she’s held on to the maillot jaune and is crowned Tour de France Femmes 2023 winner. Kopecky has overhauled both Niewiadoma and van Vleuten to finish second. Niewiadoma finishes in third. Unbelievably, she has the same time gap as Kopecky at 3min 03sec, but loses out on tenths or hundredths of seconds on the time trial. Van Vleuten has dropped off the podium and finishes her final Tour in fourth place.

Marlen Reusser wins stage seven

None of the big names that followed could beat the European time trial champion. She’s taken the win on stage seven by setting a time of 29min 15sec over the 22.6km time trial course.

Van Vleuten has finished 12th . She grimaces, gets out of the saddle for one more push but it’s not enough. She’s crossed the line 1min 14sec behind Reusser’s time.

Kopecky is second fastest so far … She’s just crossed the line 37sec behind Reusser. That was a great effort. Think she’ll be pleased with that and it should give her a spot on the podium.

Labous crosses in fourth place … She’s 1min 17sec behind Reusser and looks to climb the final GC rankings. Kopecky has passed Moolman Passio, while van Vleuten is looking sure to slip off the podium.

🔥P4 on the line for @JulietteLabous ! There's a 5th place in GC on the cards here ! 🔥4ème place pour @JulietteLabous ! Il y a une 5ème place au classement général à la clé ! #TDFF2023 #WatchTheFemmes @Gozwift pic.twitter.com/5yModeyHyf — Le Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift (@LeTourFemmes) July 30, 2023

Vollering is putting in a stellar effort … She passes through the intermediate time check down by 12sec, putting her into second place for the moment.

Niewiadoma is flying … she might well hold on to second place on the podium. After yesterday’s valiant effort, it would seem cruel for her to slip off at this stage.

Not looking so good for van Vleuten: She’s 1min 01sec behind Reusser’s time.

Looking good for Kopecky: She is third fastest at the intermediate time check. Kopecky is 30sec behind Reusser.

Riejanne Markus: The Jumbo-Visma rider has slotted into third place with a time of 30min 05sec. She’s 50sec behind Reusser.

Reusser is the one to beat ... Will anyone go faster than the European time trial champ?

🇪🇺Marlen Reusser had ambitions to win, she certainly did everything in her power to claim a second #TDFF stage win! 🇪🇺Marlen Reusser pour ambition de gagner, elle a fait le maximum pour remporter une deuxième victoire d'étape au #TDFF . #TDFF2023 #WatchTheFemmes @Gozwift pic.twitter.com/8wRN6cvNG2 — Le Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift (@LeTourFemmes) July 30, 2023

Van Vleuten: With 16km left of her time trial, van Vleuten is 16sec behind Reusser according to the live timings.

Demi Vollering: The yellow jersey, or should I say yellow skinsuit wearer, is off. Kasia Niewiadoma started 2min earlier and van Vleuten set of at 3.57pm.

Current standings: Here is how the ITT times compare so far.

Here is how the race stands so far : Le classement provisoire : 1️⃣🇨🇭Marlen Reusser (29’15’’, 46,3 km/h) 2️⃣🇦🇺 @GLBrown321 , +40" 3️⃣🇨🇦Olivia Baril, +1'17" 4️⃣🇮🇹 @VittoriaGuazzi1 , +1'21" 5️⃣🇳🇱 @lucinda_brand , +1'30" #TDFF2023 #WatchTheFemmes @Gozwift pic.twitter.com/N1suO5FbnV — Le Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift (@LeTourFemmes) July 30, 2023

Kasia Niewiadoma: Clad in a polka-dot skinsuit and red aero helmet, the Canyon-SRAM rider has ridden down the ramp and begun her bid to hang on to a podium place.

Lotte Kopecky: The Belgian rider, who was seen earlier warming up on a green road bike, has just swatted a bee off her helmet and is on her way …

“Yesterday’s race up the Tourmalet was iconic,” writes Toby. He’s emailed in to share his Tour highlight. “The fog, the altitude, the end of the Annemiek van Vleuten era,” he writes. “I was so happy to see Kasia Niewiadoma, one of my favourite riders across both pelotons, attack and be able to hold it to the end, finishing second.” He’s also shared this set of images by photographer Justin Britton. “The first one, particularly, encapsulates so much about the theatre of bike racing,” writes Toby.

MADNESS @demivollering pic.twitter.com/xehTyNpGbE — Justin Britton (@Justin_Britton) July 29, 2023

We’re coming up to the business end now … there are only six riders left to start and they include Juliette Labous, Moolman Pasio, Kopecky, van Vleuten, Niewiadoma and Vollering.

Liane Lippert: Stage two winner, Lippert has just descended the ramp and is out on the road. Cordon-Ragot clocked a time of 30min 48sec and can be seen pouring water over her head as she sits on the floor. Unfortunately for Cordon-Ragot, her aero helmet doesn’t have any vents.

Reusser pushes Brown out of the lead: We just had a new leader, but it wasn’t for long. Reusser has trumped Brown by 40sec and finishes her ITT in 29min 15sec. I wonder how much time she lost due to the motorbike and team car debacle earlier …

Brown has gone into the lead: We have a new leader. Brown has beaten her teammate Guazzini to first place. She was 40sec faster, with a time of 29min 55sec.

Marlen Reusser: As the SD Worx rider was catching another rider on the course, she was slowed down by a motorbike and a team car in her way in to a corner. That’s not great.

Grace Brown: The Aussie is flying and 29sec faster than Cordon-Ragot at the intermediate time check.

Yara Kastelijn has been awarded the super combativity award

Stage four winner, Kastelijn, has won the super combativity award for this year’s Tour de France Femmes . In case you need a reminder: Kastelijn won the longest stage of this year’s Tour, from Cahors to Rodez, after spending just under 160 kilometres on the front of the race, much of it in a 14-rider move that went clear on the day’s first climb, the Col de Crayssac. Here’s Jeremy Whittle’s report on that dramatic day …

Lizzie Holden and Lucinda Brand: The British national time trial champion has finished in sixth place, while Brand has jumped into second place and is 9sec behind the leader.

A fan of the time trial: Andrew from Cambridge has emailed in to share his appreciation of today’s stage. “I think it’s a neat touch to end the tour with a time trial, it gives every contender a chance in the telly limelight on the day everyone will be watching,” he writes. He adds: “And a chance for many to be in the lead for a couple of minutes, which I imagine is good for the individuals, the teams and the tour itself. Something for a near-future men’s TdF to consider?” Well, Andrew, happily for you, next year’s Tour de France will end in an individual time trial from Monaco to Nice.

Audrey Cordon Ragot and Grace Brown: The multiple French time trial champion is off, closely followed by Australian national TT champ, Grace Brown. The latter also won a silver medal in last year’s world champs in this discipline.

Henderson is second in the standings: A really strong ride for Henderson but she couldn’t quite manage to beat Guazzini’s time. She’s finished just over 15secs slower, with a time of 30min 51sec, but that does mean she is in second place overall

Anna Henderson: The Jumbo-Visma rider has set a new best time at the intermediate time check of 13min 37sec. That’s 3sec faster than Guazzini. Will she be in the hot seat next?

🇫🇷 #TDFF2023 Provisional fastest time for Anna at the first intermediate point! 👊 — Team Jumbo-Visma Women (@JumboVismaWomen) July 30, 2023

Arianna Fidanza: The Ceratizit-WNT has just been shown on the coverage with a bloodied knee and looking a bit worse for wear after having crashed. She’s standing up and being checked over.

Mischa Bredewold: The SD Worx rider is out on the road. Her helmet is giving me Star Wars vibes.

Emma Norsgaard: Stage six winner, Norsgaard is the Danish national TT champion. She’s just set off for her go on this 22.6km route. Will she bump Guazzini out of the hot seat? She’s currently sat there smiling and checking her phone.

An email: “I’m looking forward to today’s time trial,” writes Peter. “But I think I have to agree with Demi Vollering from her interview yesterday. This race has been so good. It deserves a glass of champagne and a bike ride into Paris.”

Vittoria Guazzini: As mentioned earlier, the FDJ-Suez rider is the U23 time trial world champion. She’s set a time of 30min 36sec at a speed of 44.3km/h.

The bump in the road: Today’s 22.6km time trial features a climb at roughly halfway. The Côte de Bosdarros is 1.38km and has an average gradient of 6.7%. While some of the riders won’t welcome the bump in the road, it’s likely to suit Kopecky.

Coming roughly halfway through today's route, the 1.38km Côte de Bosdarros averages 6.7%. @ashleighcycling is the current holder of the @Strava QOM but after 7 hard days of racing, can anyone better her time? 👑⏱️ #TDFF2023 #TDFFdata pic.twitter.com/cAW6fiUNUJ — letourdata (@letourdata) July 30, 2023

Josie Talbot: The Cofidis rider set off second, after van ‘t Geloof, but is the first to finish the ITT. She has set a time of 31min 42sec.

As always, please send in your thoughts , predictions and questions via email or Twitter. I would love the company …

The live TV coverage began at 2pm and there’s a lot of shots of riders warming up, walking around in aero helmets and prediction chat from the commentators. I’m yet to see it cut to the actual live footage, but when it does these updates will hopefully become more frequent.

Mavi Garcia: The Liv Racing Teqfind rider will not start today’s stage due to illness. The Spanish rider is 15th in the overall rankings.

[ #TDFF2023 ] A bummer for @mavi_at : she will not start today due to illness. Get well soon! 🙌 pic.twitter.com/25Y5jgC8Ql — Liv Racing TeqFind (@LivRTeqFind) July 30, 2023

There is one time check , located at 10.6km to go. Also, in case you’re interested, there are 10 national individual time trial champions taking part in today’s stage. Antri Christoforou (Team Human Powered Health), a national ITT champion for Cyprus, has already set off, as has U23 world champion Vittoria Guazzini (FDJ-Suez). The next ITT champ to go down the ramp will be Emma Norsgaard at 2.29pm. The other national ITT champions to look out for are Elizabeth Holden (2.39pm), Georgia Williams (2.41pm), Christine Majerus (3.42pm), Agnieszka Skalniak-Sojka (3.47pm), Grace Brown (4.08pm), Cédrine Kerbaol (France, 4.37pm), Riejanne Markus (4.39pm) and Lotte Kopecky (4.55pm). European ITT champion Marlen Reusser is up at 3.12pm.

Stage eight is go!

Two riders have begun their bid at the individual time trial. Marjolein van ‘t Geloof (Human Powered Health), as the lanterne rouge , set of first at 1.38pm. Josie Talbot (Cofidis) goes second.

🚩First start of the day, it's @MGeloof ! 🚩Premier départ de la journée, c'est @MGeloof ! #TDFF2023 #WatchTheFemmes @Gozwift pic.twitter.com/Phz0yhMkd3 — Le Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift (@LeTourFemmes) July 30, 2023

There are 123 riders left in this year’s Tour but the main focus of today’s time trial will be on just a handful that could upset the podium standings. After Demi Vollering’s victory on the Col du Tourmalet yesterday pushed her into the GC lead, it’s difficult to see anyone challenging her for the yellow jersey. She has a 1min 50 sec lead over second placed Kasia Niewiadoma. So, the real battle will be for the final two podium spots: the gap that separates Niewiadoma in second and Ashleigh Moolman Passio in fifth is just 49 sec.

Will Annemiek van Vleuten dig deep for a stage win given her TT chops? Or, will Lotte Kopecky claim a second podium spot for SD Worx? They do have form on the one-two victories after all.

Who’s wearing what jersey?

Yellow: Demi Vollering (SD Worx) 24hr 48min 10sec

Green: Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx) 228pts

Polka-dot: Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) 27pts

White: Cédrine Kerbaol (Ceratizit–WNT Pro Cycling) 24hr 58min 16sec

Tour de France Femmes: Demi Vollering climbs to stage win and yellow jersey

Stage seven report: Demi Vollering took a spectacular and career-defining win at the summit of the Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrenees, to take over the lead in the Tour de France Femmes , with only Sunday’s 22km time trial remaining.

The SD Worx rider emphatically shattered the stalemate with her Dutch compatriot, Annemiek van Vleuten, attacking with a little over 5km of the stage remaining. At the finish line, Vollering had pulled out more than two and a half minutes on Van Vleuten. Jeremy Whittle reports from Tourmalet Bagnères-de-Bigorre …

The top five on General Classification

Demi Vollering (SD Worx) 24hr 48min 10sec

Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) +1min 50sec

Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar) +2min 28sec

Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx) +2min 35sec

Ashleigh Moolman Pasio (AG Insurance–Soudal–Quick-Step) +2min 39sec

Stage eight: Pau to Pau (22.6km ITT)

Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift race director, Marion Rousse on stage eight: “Between Pau and Gan, this stage will initially follow the route of the final part of the 2019 Tour de France time trial, but running in the opposite direction. After topping the climb (1.8km at 5.5%), the winding course will demand multiple accelerations. The slightly uphill approach to the finish will offer a magnificent panorama, and perhaps some final suspense before the presentation of the Yellow Jersey.”

The first rider will roll down the ramp for today’s individual time trial at 1.38pm (BST).

⏱️ The only Time Trial on the #TDFF2023 sees the riders start and finish in Pau for a 22 km course. Enough to change the GC? ⏱️ Le seul contre-la-montre du #TDFF2023 démarre et finit à Pau pour une boucle de 22 km.

Reigning champion Annemiek van Vleuten is targeting another Tour de France Femmes crown, as the second modern edition of the stage race takes place on 23 July to 30 July. Here is all you need to know before the start in Clermont-Ferrand.

The second edition of the most prestigious stage race on the women’s cycling calendar is billed as being the biggest yet. Tour de France Femmes 2023 is offering a diverse route starting in the highland region of Massif Central and finishing at the foot of the Pyrenees in Pau.

The big question before this year’s race has been whether anyone can challenge defending champion Annemiek van Vleuten , who is also an Olympic gold and silver medallist and four-time world champion.

The 40-year-old Dutchwoman has already claimed La Vuelta Femenina and the Giro d’Italia Donne this season, and victory in the Tour de France Femmes would complete the set of 2023 women's Grand Tour race wins.

22 teams will be at the start line to battle over 8 stages, not just for the yellow leader’s jersey, but also the green points classification jersey, the polka-dot jersey for leader of the mountain classification and the white jersey for the best young rider under 23 years of age.

Tour de France Femmes 2023 route

Tour de France Femmes 2023 consists of eight stages with a total of 956 kilometres of racing. The peloton starts with a fairly flat stage around Clermont-Ferrand, and from the second hilly stage, the riders slowly move towards the southwest of France.

A mix of flat and hilly stages follow until the seventh stage, where the big battle among the GC favourites will be fought on the mountainous route to the iconic Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrenees.

The race will conclude with a 22 kilometres individual time trial around Pau.

Riders to watch at the Tour de France Femmes 2023

Two-time road race world champion Annemiek van Vleuten is the big favourite for the Tour de France Femmes 2023. In the Giro d’Italia Donne that finished earlier this month, the Olympic time trial champion claimed three stages and won the general classification by almost four minutes to Juliette Labous of France in second place.

The Movistar rider is in the middle of her last season before retiring, but after having claimed both the overall in the Giro d’Italia Donne and La Vuelta Femenina, the defending champion has proved that she isn't finished yet.

Last year, van Vleuten clinched the yellow jersey by taking the last two stages of the Tour de France Femmes. 3 minutes and 48 seconds was the gap to second place Demi Vollering .

The second placed rider from last year’s edition could also be the biggest threat for van Vleuten this year. Vollering completed the Ardennes hat-trick of one-day races earlier this season, winning the Amstel Gold Race, La Flèche Wallonne, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège Femmes.

The 26-year-old SD Worx rider is currently leading the UCI World Rankings, as she has secured an incredible 13 victories already this season, and the Dutch road race champion has taken a big step up since last year’s second place at this race.

At the La Vuelta Femenina, Vollering looked like she was about to be crowned the overall winner, but van Vleuten capitalized on a toilet break and gained more than a minute on the penultimate stage to ultimately win the race.

By the looks of this season’s results, we can hope to see a breathtaking Dutch battle between van Vleuten and Vollering.

Other riders, who potentially can fight for the overall victory are Elisa Longo Borghini of Italy, Juliette Labous of France, and Katarzyna Niewiadoma of Poland.

In the battle for the green jersey, the European road race champion Lorena Wiebes will be the woman to beat. The Dutchwoman has a strong team to support her in SD Worx.

Her 24-year-old compatriot Charlotte Kool of dsm-firmenich has showed earlier this season that she has the top speed to beat Wiebes in a bunch sprint.

Last year’s winner of the green jersey and arguably the greatest female cyclist of all time, Marianne Vos , also needs to be mentioned among the contenders for the points classification.

As the general classification riders will most likely battle it out on the decisive mountain stage to Col du Tourmalet, they will also be the favourites to claim the polka dot jersey after the final stage in Pau.

The Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift returns on July 23, 2023 with eight stages, including a time trial as the finale to the race.

The 2023 edition will feature the same amount of stages as the inaugural 2022 race . In total, 2023 will be 77km shorter than last year, but next year’s longest stage at 177km is a bit longer than the longest stage in 2022 (175.6km).

“I’m very stoked that Tour de France Femmes received such great support and attention in 2022 when it all started,” says Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon//SRAM) who finished fourth in the 2022 edition . “It’s very promising for the future and for the next generations of young riders pursuing their dreams. As everyone knows, there is something special about the race that nobody can explain. It’s the atmosphere, the course, the organization, the fans, and above all excitement that we share amongst each other.”

What is the route of the 2023 Tour de France Femmes?

The race covers three regions in Southern France: Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie, crossing two mountain ranges in the process. The highest point—the Tourmalet pass—will be the end of the mountain stage.

If the race plays out similar to last year, with a sprinter and tactical rider like Marianne Vos dominating the flat and hilly stages, the final mountain and time trial stages could be big shakeups for the overall standings.

The stages include:

• July 23 - Flat - Clermont-Ferrand to Clermont-Ferrand - 124km
• July 24 - Hilly - Clermont-Ferrand to Mauriac - 148km
• July 25 - Flat - Collonges la Rouge to Montignac Lascaux - 147km
• July 26 - Hilly - Cahors to Rodez - 177km
• July 27 - Flat - Onet le Chateau to Albi - 126km
• July 28 - Flat - Albi to Blagnac - 122km
• July 29 - Mountain - Lannemezan to Tourmalet Bagneres de Bigorre - 90km
• July 30 - Time Trial - Pau to Pau - 22km

As with last year’s race, there will be a daily coverage in the U.S. on Peacock .

In terms of prize money, we’re still not quite at equal payouts. For the women, a total of €250,000 will be awarded across the different stage, jersey and team competitions, including €50,000 to the winner of the final general classification according to ASO. (By comparison, ASO’s Tour de France men’s race boasts "a total of around 2.3 million euros will be awarded to the teams and riders, including 500,000 euros to the winner of the final individual general classification.")

However, it’s important to remember that while it feels slow , progress truly is being made—and racers are excited. “The first edition of TdFF was everything I expected it to be and so much more," says Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio (SD-Worx). “ I’ve been watching the TdF from the sofa for many years and dreaming of racing it, but I didn’t quite comprehend how big it really was, until I experienced it first hand for myself. It was mind blowing being part of the inaugural event and seeing the attention it attracted from far and wide, and in real life with all the people out supporting on the roads…I have never experience anything like it in women’s cycling and I’m super excited for next years edition. For me, it was a massive disappointment not to have finished due to illness , so I feel like I have unfinished business and I’m more motivated that ever to win that iconic yellow jersey.”

“The Tour de France Femmes in 2022 was bigger than I expected. The attention, the media coverage, the fans along the side of roads. And the racing was fantastic," says Elise Chabbey of Canyon//SRAM . “That makes me believe that 2023 will be even bigger.”

The eight-stage race held from August 12-18 with a crowning finish atop the iconic Alpe d'Huez

The third edition new version of the women's Tour de France - 2024 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift - will host eight stages across seven days between August 12 and August 18. The race is set to start in the Netherlands and then travel south into France and finish atop the fabled Alpe d'Huez.

The date of the event has shifted compared to previous years from late July to mid-August to accommodate the Olympic Games that will be held from July 26-August 11 in Paris.

The field will complete a total of  946.3km of racing that includes three flat stages, one individual time trial, two hilly stages, two mountain stages and a crowning conclusion atop Alpe d'Huez, where the overall winner will be crowned.

The route was officially presented in Paris on October 25 by race director Marion Rousse.

The Grand Départ will be held in the Netherlands with host cities in Rotterdam, The Hague, Dordrecht and Valkenburg.

The route will then cross into Belgium and take the peloton to Liège and Bastogne, iconic locations of the Ardennes Classics, before reaching France on the fourth day of racing.

The last three stages will be held in France, and travel southward toward the Alps for two back-to-back mountain stages that finish at Le Grand-Bornand and the final destination atop Alpe d'Huez.

Cyclingnews will have live coverage of all eight stages of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift , along with race reports, galleries, results, and exclusive features and news.

Tour de France Femmes 2024 stages

Watch the official 2024 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift route presentation .

Stage 1: Rotterdam to The Hague, 124km

Type: Flat Favourites: Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx), Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma), Elisa Balsamo (Lidl-Trek)

Organisers of the 2024 Tour de France Femmes, ASO, had already confirmed that the event would begin in the Netherlands, entering host cities Rotterdam, The Hague, Dordrecht and Valkenburg.

The Grand Départ will begin on August 12, with the opening stage held from Rotterdam to The Hague on a flat 124km route well-suited to the sprinters.

"The stage begins with a 40km loop that features two trips through a long and newly built tunnel beneath the waters of the River Scheur – the tunnel will be formally opened on this great occasion," Rousse said. 

"The riders will then find themselves in flat and wind-exposed terrain, the route running between tulip fields and through urban areas. The last five kilometres, which are wide and free of significant difficulties, will lead to a final straight on an avenue that’s perfect for a bunch sprint."

Stage 2: Dordrecht to Rotterdam, 67km

Type: Flat Favourites: Chiara Consonni (UAE Team ADQ), Letizia Paternoster (Liv AlUla Jayco), Charlotte Kool (Team dsm-firmenich)

The peloton will face a double day of racing on August 13, where the stage 2 road race will bring the riders from Dordrecht back into Rotterdam for a flat 67km stage and another opportunity for the sprinters. However, it won't be completely simple as strong winds could play a role in the outcome of the stage.

"With two stages on the menu in a single day, the riders will be reviving a tradition abandoned by the Tour de France in 1991," Rousse said.

"The morning brings this short but intense road stage, which will be subject to the vagaries of the wind and constant changes of direction. For a probable sprint finish on Boompjes, a wide avenue lined with skyscrapers."

Stage 3: Rotterdam to Rotterdam, 6.3km (ITT)

Type: Flat Favourites: Marlen Reusser (SD Worx), Ellen van Dijk (Lidl-Trek), Chloe Dygert (Canyon-SRAM), Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx)

The racing will continue in the afternoon on August 13 for stage 3, which will showcase a short 6.3km individual time trial that starts and finishes in Rotterdam.

There was no time trial in the first edition of the Tour de France Femmes in 2022, but after many requests and feedback, ASO introduced a time trial to the second edition in 2023. The race against the clock, won by Marlen Reusser (SD Worx), closed out the 2023 event in Pau, while her teammate Demi Vollering won the overall title.

"This short and intense time trial should suit the most powerful of the riders. The only slight rises on the course will be the two major bridges, Érasme and Guillaume. There are a few right-hand bends as the course passes the town hall and the maritime museum, but it’s mainly on big boulevards, and the winner could average close to 50km/h," Rousse said of the time trial route.

Stage 4: Valkenburg to Liège, 122km

Type: Hilly Favourites: Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek), Demi Vollering (SD Worx), Lizzie Deignan (Lidl-Trek), Elise Chabbey (Canyon-SRAM), Liane Lippert (Movistar)

On August 14, stage 4 will start in Valkenburg and bring the peloton into the Belgian city of Liège for a 122km hilly race that includes eight categorised ascents.

The route is reminiscent of the Amstel Gold Race and Liège-Bastogne-Liège, part of the famed Ardennes Classics. 

On this course, the peloton will take on the Geulhemmerberg and Bemelerberg (twice) and the Cauberg before battling the four ascents: Mont-Theux, Côte de la Redoute, Côte des Forges, and the Côte de la Roche-aux-Faucons, before finishing in Liège.

"Combining the difficulties of the Amstel Gold Race (Geulhemmerberg and Bemelerberg twice, plus the Cauberg) with those of Liège-Bastogne-Liège will make this stage very challenging," Rousse said.

"At the finish on the Quai des Ardennes, the finale, tackled via Mont-Theux (2.8km at 5.6%), will have put the peloton to the test following the climbs of the Côte de la Redoute, Côte des Forges and Côte de la Roche-aux-Faucons."

Stage 5: Bastogne to Amnéville, 150km

Type: Flat Favourites: Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx), Marianne Vos (Jumbo-Visma), Lizzie Deignan (Lidl-Trek), Chloe Dygert (Canyon-SRAM), Alexandra Manly (Liv AlUla Jayco), Emma Norsgaard (Movistar)

Another iconic Belgian location of professional cycling, Bastogne, will host the start of stage 5 on August 15, where the peloton will race 150km along a flat route and then cross into France for the finish in Amnéville.

The peloton will tackle five categorised ascents, but the stage is still considered 'flat' and so could be one for either the sprinters or puncheurs with an uphill finish ramp into Amnéville.

"The very undulating route (featuring more than 2,000m of vertical gain) and regular changes of direction should produce a dynamic stage," Rousse said.

"Punchy riders will relish this test, and especially the finish, which will be located in front of the Amnéville thermal baths, at the top of a challenging final kilometre (a 6% gradient to start with, then between 3 and 4% up to the line)."

Stage 6: Remiremont to Morteau, 160km

Type: Hilly Favourites: Liane Lippert (Movistar), Lucinda Brand (Lidl-Trek), Audrey Cordon-Ragot (Human Powered Health), Mavi García (Liv Racing TeqFind), Silvia Persico (UAE Team ADQ), Amanda Spratt (Lidl-Trek)

Stage 6 will begin in Remiremont on August 16 and take the peloton on a 160km hilly route into Morteau.

The peloton will tackle five categorised ascents, each more demanding as the stage progresses; Col du Mont de Fourche (3.2km at 5.9%), Col de Ferriere (2.6km at 4.7%), Côte de Laviron (5.7km at 4.1%), La Roche du Prêtre (5.5km at 5.6%), Côte des Fines (1.8km at 7%) before a descent into Morteau.

"After leaving the picturesque setting of Remiremont and heading up the Moselle valley, the peloton will pass through Thibaut Pinot’s hometown, Melisey, and then his birthplace, Lure," Rousse said.

"Beyond the magnificent Cirque de Consolation, the first test in the Jura massif, the route features two significant ramps heading into the finish (5.5km at 5.6% and 1.8km at 6.9%)."

Stage 7: Champagnole to Le Grand-Bornand, 167km

Type: Mountain Favourites: Demi Vollering (SD Worx), Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM), Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek), Juliette Labous (Team dsm-firmenich), Silvia Persico (UAE Team ADQ), Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig (FDJ SUEZ)

The race then heads into the Alps with stage 7, the longest of the eight stages at 167km and the first mountain stage, which will start in Champagnole and finish at Le Grand-Bornand on August 17.

The stage includes five categorised climbs: Col de la Croix de la Serra (12km at 5.1%), Côte de Bois d'Ariod (2.4km at 4.6%), Côte de Cercier (4km at 4.9%), Col de Saint-Jean-de-Sixt (5.4km at 5.1%) that leads into the final ascent Montée du Chinaillon (7km at 5.1%) into Le Grand-Bornand.

"The longest stage of this 2024 edition will begin with a number of smallish hurdles, plus the long haul up the Col de la Croix de la Serra (12km at 5.1%), from the Saint-Claude side," Rousse said.

"It concludes with a new and steep finish at Chinaillon (7km, 5.1%), an authentic hamlet with traditional chalets on the flanks of the Col de la Colombière."

Stage 8: Le Grand-Bornand to Alpe d'Huez, 150km

Type: Mountain Favourites: Demi Vollering (SD Worx), Gaia Realini (Lidl-Trek), Marta Cavalli (FDJ-SUEZ), Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM), Juliette Labous (Team dsm-firmenich), Ashleigh Moolman (AG Insurance-Soudal-QuickStep), Veronica Ewers (EF Education-Cannondale)

The 2024 Tour de France Femmes will finish on Alpe d'Huez.

The concluding stage 8 will take the peloton on a 150km mountain stage that begins at Le Grand-Bornand and finishes atop the fabled Alpe d'Huez, with the similarly brutal Col du Glandon acting as the warm-up for the showpiece finish.

The finale will include three major ascents beginning with the Col de Tamié (9.5km at 4%), and then crest the Col du Glandon (19.7km at 7.2%) before reaching Alpe d'Huez (13.8km at 8.1%) where the overall champion will be crowned.

"A truly beautiful mountain stage with two big climbs: the highest point of this third edition of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift comes on the Col du Glandon (1,924m), which will be tackled via its hardest side (19.7km at 7.2%); then, for the grand finale, we have the mythical 21 hairpins Alpe d’Huez, where the 2024 champion is destined to emerge," Rousse said.

Nys holds on in Tour de Romandie for first big win

Les Marécottes (Switzerland) (AFP) – Thibau Nys grabbed the overall lead in the Tour de Romandie on Thursday when he had enough energy left to outsprint the remnants of a day-long breakaway.

Issued on: 25/04/2024 - 18:19 Modified: 25/04/2024 - 18:17

The 21-year-old Belgian was part of a six-rider escape early on the 171km second stage from Fribourg to the Marecottes ski resort.

Only Nys and Andrea Vendrame were still clear when they were caught and passed by Australia's Luke Plapp in the last kilometre. But Nys sprinted past for his first World Tour victory. Italian Vendramme was second.

"I wanted this victory so badly, I've worked so hard for it, I'll remember it for the rest of my life", said Nys, a former junior world cyclo-cross champion. His father Sven Nys won two full world titles in the discipline.

The pack, containing the race heavyweights, finished 16 seconds back.

Nys, who rides for Lidl-Trek, displaced Frenchman Dorian Godon at the top of the overall classification.

The Belgian leads Vendrame of Decathlon-AG2R by four seconds with Plapp, of Jayco-AlUla, third at 22sec ahead of Friday's 15.5km time trial.

"I'm not strong enough right now in the time trial to keep the yellow jersey, but I'm going to enjoy wearing it tomorrow," said Nys.
