Km 182-184.8: the run into Ussel, the high place, and the finish the whole route has ridden toward
A cycling corridor that has never made a champion, and the finish line it waited a century for
Km 176-182: a priory on a rock, one of the first monuments France chose to keep, and the last village before the finish
Km 168-176: the abbey at the foot of the plateau, three improbabilities, and the last rise before Ussel
Km 162-168: off the eastern lip of the Millevaches, the steepest sustained drop of the run to Ussel
The Race
Four riders are virtually cycling from the comfort of their homes. Starting in April, each logs daily kilometres from their own rides, and we track their progress along the 185km Stage 9 parcours. Each day, up to 2km counts toward their position on the route - but unused cap rolls over, rewarding rest days followed by big efforts. Four jerseys are contested: yellow for the race leader, green for sprint points, polka dot for climbing points, and the lanterne rouge for last place.
