TdF 2019-Stage 6: Mulhouse to La Planche des Belles Filles Ride

The favorites of the Tour never miss out on La Planche des Belles Filles “rendez-vous.” There are seven categorized climbs packed into the day. Before that now familiar finish is a stage that is the hardest one that has ever led up to the climb, with very nearly 4000m (2.5m) of elevation gain over the course of just 160.5km (100 miles). They will face an even tougher finish (1 extra kilometer, including two additional steep climbs).

Speed it Up: This ride utilizes three sequences of cadence building to create better performance and controlled speed on the flats.

Sunburst: This basic profile uses all movements (except sprints) and covers aerobic, threshold, and anaerobic training zones.
