La Planche des Belles Filles (1 140 m) Cat.
/ Arrival
Now we’re in the real mountains, with the
familiar appearance of La Planche des
Belles Filles as a summit fi nish. I hasten to
add, though, that this fi nale has a new look
as the climb has been extended by about a
kilometre, so that it not only fi nishes higher
than before but also tackles some brutal
ramps of up to 24%! This should mean
that the general classifi cation starts to
take shape. It is even possible that the late
combination of the Col des Chevrères and La
Planche des Belles Filles, coming aft er the
Grand Ballon and the Ballon d’Alsace, might
knock several leaders, or supposed leaders,
out of contention!
TIMETABLE
To ride
HIGHER THAN EVER!
