By David Hunter Marmaris > Turgutreis 180km An interesting looking stage.
By David Hunter Xilxes > Platja Almenara 14km ITT Wide roads, hardly any corners, this is a TT for the specialists. There really isn’t much to say about the route, there’s just one little climb after 9km.
By David Hunter Fethiye > Marmaris 129km Another stage that is used a lot in this race.
By David Hunter Torrent > Dos Aguas 164.5km Strap yourself in, this stage is bonkers. We have 3441m of climbing, on paper it doesn’t sound too bad. The stage ends with a climb of 7.5km at 4.9%, again, it doesn’t sound too bad. The problem is when you look a little deeper into the final 60km….
By David Hunter Kemer > Elmali 160km The Queen stage.
By David Hunter Alicante > Alicante 177km On paper this is an easy sprint stage, but the weather Gods might not agree. Weather There’s going to be a lot of rain throughout the stage, and quite a strong wind coming from the north-east. We’re talking about speeds of 30km/h and above, which is certainly strong enough…
By David Hunter Alanya > Kemer 185km You guessed it, another sprint. At least the stages start to get a little more interesting after this one.
