Do they need to do risk analysis on parcours sections?
When I organise a reliability ride in the Chilterns I need to do a risk assessment, document the risks and say what I've done to mitigate them. That's so I satisfy the requirements of our organisers liability insurance. I can't see why the requirements would be any less for this. If they mandate the route, they are responsible for it.

As I knew I wasn't riding I didn't follow the announcements but when was the parcours finalised? Because they had like 3 different versions of the race during the years. Was it an early starter or picked more recently in the process?
It was in the 2020 edition. What didn't come out until about April was that the CP would be down the other side of the pass which made it harder and longer without resupply options.
But there's not much info out there if you try to research it. There are strava files, a few pics and even some videos, but they're done by people on mountain bikes so hardly comparable.
Even if you do research it, it doesn't really help. You either have to tackle it on a road bike or do the other 4000km on a gravel or mountain bike.
