  • I think you're missing the point if you want set piece stages to decide the race.

    Last year's race was won on a what was billed as a transition stage. The hard roads, small teams and unpredictable weather are what makes the race, not a summit finish or a time trial.

  • I suppose you're right but the racing when the TdF was in Yorkshire was amazing. I know it has its own race now but would be nice to see that sort of terrain use more.

    Having said that, the Vuelta has arguably the best terrain and scenery and is very much the third grand tour.
