Just two time trials -- 14 and 28 km.

Name someone who's great in the mountains but not so good in TTs.

I know this is stupid, but Horner is. Also Quintana? How else?

It's sad that I noticed right away that the map was wrong, isn't it. :nono:

Also, the 28 km TT is actually a TTT making the race even more friendly for climbers with teammates who can TT and let their GC hopeful sit in their slipstream.

The French have always hated the Brits.
