No circuit on the menu for this day before last, but three special road stages, two in the morning and one in the afternoon. As an interlude for this long day which will cross five departments (Savoie, Isère, Drôme et Vaucluse and Bouches du Rhône) the competitors will have lunch in the fabulous settings of the Couvent des Carmes (14th Century), overlooking the Isère Valley. The finish will be in Aix-en-Provence.
