The stage on Saturday heads through my local area and there’s a decent hill they’ll climb with 25km to go that could be a good spot to watch from. The road book says they will hit the climb at 14:22 on the fastest schedule, so I’m wondering roughly what time I’d need to be in place before they close the road? Trying to work it into a long ride, so planning ride schedule basically.
Seems to be rolling road closures maybe 10km ahead of the first riders and pretty swiftly opened after them. You probably won't be the only person with the same thought so I'd probably plan on parking somewhere nearby on the way and walking the last bit.
You’ll be fine as long as you arrive 30-40 mins ahead of the expected arrival, the police bikes arrived maybe 15 mins ahead of the race on Sunday but they were waving cars through for another 5 mins and allowed cyclists through where we were
