L’Étape du Tour 2024: expert tips for riding the Étape 2024

Sports Tours International logo

L’Étape du Tour de France is (probably) the most famous mass participation bike ride in the world. Each year, thousands of amateur cyclists gather to ride one of the toughest and most spectacular stages of the Tour de France.  

2024 will be the 32nd edition of  L’Étape du Tour. It will be held on 7 July 2024 on the route of the 20th stage of the Tour de France 2024, between Nice and the Col de la Couillole (via the Col de Braus, Col de Turini and Col de la Colmiane).

Sports Tours International is an Étape du Tour Official Tour Operator. They’ve been helping cyclists book tours to L’Étape and Tour de France since 1996. In this article we speak with Clement Cicuto, Sports Tours’ General Manager for Europe. He gives the lowdown on L’Étape 2024 including firsthand tips on the Étape route, nutrition and what it takes to achieve success at L’Étape.

This guide provides an overview of the 32 nd edition of the Étape du Tour to be held on 7 July 2024. Please read the rules, entry conditions and information on the official website if you want to take part. In the event of any discrepancy between this guide and information on the official website, please rely on the official website. We are not the organisers of the event (nor are we connected with them).

Part 1: What is L’Étape du Tour and is it for you?  

What is l’étape  .

L’Étape du Tour is an annual bike ride organised by Amaury Sport Organisation (“A.S.O.”), the same people that organise the Tour de France.  

First held back in 1993, today it sees 15,000 amateur cyclists ride a stage of the Tour de France on closed roads. The Étape takes place in early July, usually a few days before the professional peloton rides the same route. This lets riders experience the same challenges and a very similar atmosphere as the professional riders.  

A.S.O. usually choose one of the queen stages of the Tour de France for L’Étape; the queen stage is always one of the spectacular mountain stages. This means that the Étape course changes every year. In recent years it has tended to be in the Alps, so you can expect big mountain climbs and spectacular scenery.  

Etape du Tour 2024 cyclists will also start in Nice

Why is L’Étape so famous?    

L’Étape piggybacks on the fame of Le Tour and is set apart from other European sportives and granfondos by that connection. It’s made special by the fact the route is different every year and that the route will always be a nearly identical copy of a stage of the Tour de France that the pros will ride just a few days later. Riding the Étape du Tour is a unique opportunity to challenge yourself and ride in the footsteps of cycling legends. It’s the way to get a true taste of the Tour de France.     

The L’Étape route takes riders to new areas every year, but the things you can always be assured of are magnificent mountain panoramas and excellent organisation.  Small things make it special – for example, the level of support from spectators, the vibrant expo at the race village, official classifications and an official podium ceremony with Tour de France jerseys.

Especially if the Étape finishes on one of the famous passes, you can expect amazing support from the crowds. On sections of the course, you’ll find roads with thousands of people cheering you on to the finish. The reason? Many of them will be there “bagging” their place for the pro race in a few days’ time. You are the warm-up act!  

Another thing that’s special about the Étape are the medals; they’re usually really nice and different every year. Many of our guests that come back year after year like to collect them.  

It’s a sign of quite how popular L’Étape du Tour is that A.S.O. have created international versions of L’Étape. The Étape series is marketed under the name Étape by Tour de France series. The events are held around the world to give local riders a taste of the Étape du Tour and the Tour de France.  

Give an overview of the Étape 2024 course  

The exact Étape du Tour date and location are announced in October each year. There’s always a sense of excitement at Sports Tours as we approach this time as to what the route will be.  

The good news is that wherever the route goes, we make sure our guests get the best hotels.  We’ve been organising Tour de France holidays for over 20 years, and so we have amazing relationships with hotels all over the Alps. That means we can use those connections to provide our riders with the best options for places to stay. Our hotels have prime locations close to the finish.

The 2024 edition of L’Étape du Tour de France, includes 4,600 metres of climbing over 138-kilometres. These kind of distances and amount of climbing are typical of what we’ve seen from L’Étape in recent years. However, the Tour organisers are suggesting that the 2024 Étape is set to be one of the more demanding routes in recent history. We will see!

Want a place in the Étape 2024?

Sports Tours can help – as at 7 March 2024, we’ve got a few entry + accommodation packages remaining ( here ) or entry-only options ( here) . In each case you’ll get access to the Sports Tours additional feed stations, support from the team and (optional extra) transfers too.

La Marmotte v L’Étape: which is better?  

Many would say that L’Étape and La Marmotte are the two most famous amateur cycling events in Europe. They are both held in the breathtaking Alps, and many serious cyclists feel compelled to tackle both in their lifetime (albeit maybe not the same year, given they’re often only a few days apart!).  

Many people believe that the Marmotte course is more challenging than the Étape, so we’d probably suggest starting with the Étape and then taking on the Marmotte.  

Here are some important distinctions:  

  • L’Étape usually takes place in early July 2024, while the Marmotte takes place at the end of June.
  • L’Étape limits participants to around 15,000 riders, while La Marmotte allows a maximum of 7,000 riders.
  • L’Étape is held on fully closed roads, while the Marmotte is on partially closed roads.
  • L’Étape course changes annually and is unveiled in mid-October of the previous year, while the course for La Marmotte tends to remain roughly 95% the same year after year.
  • L’Étape usually covers fewer, and sometimes less iconic, cols than La Marmotte’s four unchanging iconic cols.
  • Some iterations of L’Étape are easier than others (relatively speaking!) but in any event, they’re usually shorter and have less elevation gain than La Marmotte.

Part 2: L’Étape 2024 route

Many of the climbs featured in the 2024 Étape route have been seen in Paris-Nice over the years (albeit usually from a different direction). 2018 saw Simon Yates win on the Col de la Colmaine, 2019 was a victory for Daniel Felipe Martínez on the Turini, 2022 for Primoz Roglic on the Turini and 2023 was Pogacar’s turn on Col de la Couillole.

Tour de France Letape stage 2024

The four big climbs on the route of the Étape 2024 are:

Col de Braus

Col de Braus is 10 kilometres long, with an average 6.6% gradient.

Just 15 or so kilometres after the start, the Étape hits the Col de Braus. The Étape climbs the classic side of the Col de Braus, from L’Escarene. This side includes a set of much-photographed, neatly engineered switchbacks.

One of the things I particularly like about the Col de Braus is that you feel you are heading into the mountains, away from the craziness of Nice city centre. Of course, on Étape day, it won’t be quite as serene as quiet and serene as normal!

Col de Turini

Col de Turini is 20.7 kilometres long, with an average 5.7% gradient.

After descending Col de Braus to Sospel, there’s barely any time to recover as the road turns upwards again.

The Col de Turini climb from Sospel is probably the most well-known climb of the day. With around 1,200 metres of climbing, it demands respect and strategic riding. The climb gradually increases in difficulty, with switchbacks famous for the Monte Carlo Rally. As riders ascend through the Gorges du Piaon, you’re surrounded by a stunning backdrop of rugged rock faces and waterfalls. The village of Moulinet marks a mid-point for the climb. Watch out for the final five kilometres; with consistent 7.6% gradients, reaching the summit will undoubtedly be a relief!

Col de la Colmiane

Col de la Colmiane is 7.5 kilometres long, with an average 7.1% gradient.

The climb might be marked as a mere 7.5 kilometres, but in fact, it will feel much longer, as the profile is pretty much constantly upward all the way from the 82km mark at Roquebillière (568m). That makes La Colmaine more like a 20 km climb averaging 5%. By the time you’re at Saint-Martin-Vésubie, you’re at 925m above sea level – and this is where the official climb starts (7.5 kilometres at 7.1% average gradient). It’s a beautiful climb from here; the views from the hairpins on the climb to the high peaks of Argentera and Gélas are stunning and the smell of the fir trees may even overpower the likely smell of your own perspiration as you grind your way up!

Col de la Couillole

Col de la Couillole is 15.7 kilometres long, with an average 7.1% gradient.

Barely has the Col de la Colmaine descent finished, and you’re on to the final climb of the day. The climb hugs the side of the mountain and provides fantastic views down to Saint-Sauveur-sur-Tinée below. On the way up is the wonderful village of Roubion, built on the side of a cliff, overlooking the Vionène Valley. The finish summits at 1,768m.

You’ll be riding in the steps of cycling legends; the pass is known for the famous 1975 Tour de France stage with Eddy Merckx and was the Paris-Nice 2017 highest stage finish. It was also part of the Mercan’Tour Classic Alpes-Maritimes in 2021 and 2023 and saw a spectacular finish from Pogacar in the 2023 Paris-Nice.

Part 3: Practicalities of taking part in L’Étape  

How to get a place on étape du tour  .

To enter the Étape du Tour, you need to register on the official Étape website . Entry registration usually opens in October and spaces are limited, so it’s important to secure your spot early. You will need to provide personal details, sign a waiver, and pay the entry fee.  

If you don’t get a spot, don’t worry, as an official operator of the Étape, Sports Tours gets a generous allocation of tickets and we usually still have places available after the ticket-only options have sold out. More details below.  

Remember your medical certificate  

Before participating in the Étape du Tour, you will need to obtain a medical certificate. This requirement ensures that you are fit to take part in the event. The Étape website provides a detailed template for the certificate, which needs to be completed and signed by a doctor. It must be dated within one year of the event.    

What are the cut-off times for L’Étape du Tour 2024?    

These are not yet known. We will update the article once they are published.  

Is L’Étape du Tour on closed roads?  

Yes, it is. However, note that Étape regulations incorporate a number of safety requirements including a reminder that you’ll still be sharing the road with the event organisation vehicles, e.g. safety and medical vehicles. More information on their site, here.  

How hard is L’Étape du Tour? How do you train?    

The Étape du Tour is a challenging ride, designed to replicate the difficulty faced by the professionals. Expect demanding climbs and technical descents. It is essential to train and prepare hard to ensure you can complete the distance within the time cut-offs.  

The event attracts the best amateur riders from the world over, and especially towards the front of the field, competition is fierce. Only the best cyclists can hope to finish anywhere near the podium. Simply to finish is something to be proud of; literally thousands of riders abandon every year.  

Can beginner cyclists enter L’Étape?  

Technically they can – but it’s not a great idea. It would be much more sensible to start with an easier event, get yourself confident with cycling in big groups and cycling in the mountains, and then attempt the Étape.  

Do you need a training plan for L’Étape du Tour?  

However, what your Étape training plan looks like will vary considerably depending on how experienced you, how fit you and your objectives for the event.  

L’Étape training plans are well outside the scope of this article, but consistency, commitment, hill climbing practice and developing your aerobic and fat-burning capabilities will be key.    

An Étape d’Tour training plan is outside the scope of this article, but here are some key points to consider  

  • Cycling the challenging Étape requires physical fitness and specific cycling conditioning. Don’t underestimate the level of fitness needed, even if you’re fit from another sport.
  • Developing the ability to climb all the hills is crucial. Descending skills are important for safety, whether you’re a professional or amateur. Learn good technique to stay safe.
  • It sounds basic, but it’s also really important to know how to properly fuel your ride and take on food and drink even when exhausted. Without this ability, finishing is unlikely.
  • Mental strength is key as L’Étape will probably be one of the toughest challenges you’ve ever faced.
  • Give yourself a good taper in the last two weeks to make sure you’re fresh for the event.
  • Remember to pace yourself. It’s better to start easy and finish fast than it is to start fast and finish past your limit.

On the topic of mental strength, have a watch of this video that David Millar created for Sports Tours. In it, David shares his tips for tackling L’Étape.

What support is there on the route?  

L’étape event support  .

The event provides a mechanical assistance service with a neutral support car and Shimano fixed mechanical service points positioned along the route. However, of course you might not find assistance the exact moment you need it, so be prepared (more on that below).  

L’Étape feed stations will be found along the course. The feed stations are stocked with water and basic nutrition like nuts and bananas.  

Two private feed stations  

We offer two private feed stations on the course, with abundant food and drink options. These stations are less crowded than the official ones, allowing for easier access. Each station is equipped with a bike mechanic and basic first aid for your convenience. By using these private stations, you can save valuable time as they are quicker to enter and exit compared to the public stations.  

How to plan your nutrition?  

Make sure to fuel your body properly and stay hydrated, even if the weather isn’t sunny.   

If you’re participating in a hot edition of L’Étape, it’s crucial to pay extra attention to your fluid intake. If you start feeling overheated, take advantage of any opportunities to cool down.   

For instance, try riding in the shaded part of the road whenever possible. You can also use roadside water troughs to cool yourself off.   

If you’re riding with Sports Tours , make sure to pack a day bag that you can access at the first feed station. This way, you can store any unwanted gear and replenish your preferred nutrition.  

A final practical point, all of our Étape hotels provide an early breakfast, with a great selection of food (and coffee!) but feel free to check with them exactly what time that will be and what food will be available. If it doesn’t match your needs, consider taking your own breakfast and eating it in your room.  

This has article has more tips for cycling nutrition for long events.

What kit choices do you suggest for riding L’Étape?  

Compulsory kit  .

Étape regulations state that the following items are compulsory: “helmet, water bottle, repair kit with two spare inner tubes or a specific tubular tyre or tubeless tyre puncture repair kit as well as a in the event of a puncture.”  

And also…  

Be prepared. Take spares of everything, including riding kit.   

Thoroughly prepare your bike or have a bike shop do it for you. Take the time to research the course carefully and ensure you have appropriate gearing  

Make sure you bring a good supply of preferred gels/bars, electrolyte tablets, 2 x spare tubes, Co2 canisters or frame pump. Don’t forget the sunscreen – or zinc if you prefer it. The packing list here may also assist.  

The weather can change at short notice, even in July. The minimum you’d want to have with you is arm warmers and a gilet; a light rain jacket may also be a good idea. The temperature can drop on higher elevations and fast descents can get chilly. More tips on weather in the Alps, here.

If it’s looking likely to rain, overshoes, long finger gloves, and knee warmers may be in order. Pack everything you may need and check the forecast when you arrive. Leave anything unnecessary in your hotel room. Stay ready for any weather and enjoy your ride!

Make sure you’ve got appropriate bike and travel insurance that’ll cover you if you (or your bike) in case of emergencies.  

And finally, how about jotting down the key summits, distances and feed/water stops on your bars. By the halfway mark, you might find your brain isn’t functioning at top speed and a reminder of the key milestones could come in handy!

L’Étape accommodation: where should people stay?  

Accommodation for the Étape du Tour varies depending on the route and stage towns each year.   

If you’re going DIY, this can be one of the biggest headaches as so much accommodation gets booked up ahead of time by the Tour de France and people like Sports Tours! The best advice is to book as early as you possibly can. Looking for small, bike-friendly B&Bs and hotels in the area is a good way to go as they can provide local advice and support. There is often useful accommodation information the Étape du Tour website.  

We have worked with our hotels for many years; they fully understand the needs of our cyclists and provide services you need. There’s the early 5am breakfast on the day of the event, you can leave your bike in your room or in their secure bike storage and they can also arrange massages for you.  

Can you hire bikes for L’Étape?  

If you don’t have access to a suitable bike, you can take advantage of the bike hire service offered by the Étape du Tour organisers. However, it’s important to plan ahead as there may well be limited availability.   

Sports Tours guests can happily book road bike hire for the event if you prefer not to bring your own. However, I would say that it is really important to book this with, or as soon as possible after you book your main package, to ensure you secure the bike with the specifications you need. As you can imagine, demand for rental bikes is extremely high during this period.  

How should cyclists get to L’Étape du Tour 2024?  

For those that can drive rather than fly, there are certain advantages: it allows you to avoid bus transfers. You can also bring more equipment and spare parts for your bike and reduce the risk of your bike getting lost or damaged during transportation or assembly. It also makes it easier to check out the course and explore more of the surrounding area.

If you’re flying in, as the Étape du Tour is being held in Nice, getting to the Étape 2024 is easy. This site has information on direct flights to Nice and Nice train station is also extremely well connected.

If you fly, Sports Tours always arranges regular airport transfers from the most convenient international airport to the event. For L’Étape 2024, airport transfers will be available from Nice airport to the hotel throughout the day with our first transfer at 11:30am and our last transfer leaving at 20:00. On the return leg, after the event, our earliest airport transfer is for flights departing after 9:30, leaving the hotel at 07.00.

What tips would you give to someone wanting to do this event?  

Start of l’étape  .

In previous years, riders have been put in groups of about 1,000. The fastest riders have set off first and those pens typically have the lower number pens. 

Respect your starting pen and don’t drop litter   

Since 2019, the organisers have started disqualifying people that begin from a starting zone in front of the one they were allocated. The official website notes that in 2022, 122 people were disqualified for this.  

Likewise rules have been introduced to disqualify anyone disposing of waste outside the refuse disposal area. In 2022, eight people were disqualified for this.  

Other riders  

This is such a big ticket, famous event that it attracts riders of all levels, many of whom will be nervous and inexperienced. Prepare to ride confidently and decisively; your attitude will greatly impact your ability to stay out of trouble. Expect some stop-start riding; be ready to brake if needed.  

We’ve noticed that many L’Étape participants struggle with descending. If it’s something you’re good at, this gives you the chance to make up some time on the descents and improve your position; if that’s important to you. Just remember to always ride sensibly and don’t take unnecessary risks.  

David Millar prepared these tips on descending for us, which might help:

Spectators  

Every year the Tour de France prepares a map which shows the best points for spectators to spectate from. It’s worth looking at the official site.

There’s also a live tracking app so you can follow your rider(s).  

Some useful French  

These are the key phrases to know for the Étape!  

  • Merci: thanks  
  • Désolé: sorry  
  • Arrête: stop
  • À gauche: on the left  
  • À droite: on the right  

Highway code and travel information  

As ever, it’s a good idea to check current travel information before you book and travel. For UK visitors, the UK government travel information pages for France are here.  

You should also read and follow France’s highway code.  

What is there to do before/after the Étape du Tour?  

It’s always exciting to be in France during Le Tour, it’s the annual party that sweeps through the country. If you want to arrive early and recce some of the awesome climbs and/or check out the location of the feed stations, our team at Sports Tours can help you book additional nights.  

For those that want to ride both the Étape and the L’Étape, we can also help you arrange that! Get in touch with us.

Part 4: L’Étape du Tour tours  

What is included in a sports tours package  .

Sports Tours’ packages include  

  • 2 or 3 nights accommodation in either a 4 star or 3 star hotel in the start area (extra nights available on request)  
  • Daily breakfast including early breakfast on race day  
  • Transfer from the finish area back to your hotel 
  • Bike storage at your hotel either in the room or in the hotel bike store   
  • Assistance at the event expo and throughout your stay from our team of guides/reps  
  • Mechanical support from our professional mechanics  
  • 24 hour emergency number  
  • Étape du Tour race briefing  
  • Two additional feed stations on the route  
  • Sports Tours cycling jersey
  • All hotel taxes  

Mechanical support  

Our team is available to assist riders with any last-minute mechanical issues on the Saturday before the event.  

On the day, we will also have  mechanical assistance available at our private feed stations. That said, it’s important to know some basic skills yourself, such as repairing punctures and changing inner tubes, as it will save you time and keep you moving.   

Saturday morning briefing  

We run a briefing session on the Saturday morning where our experienced reps share information about the event and tips for successfully completing it. There’s also a Q&A so you can ask your own questions – and of course you can also speak to any of them outside of the briefing too. 

Morning of L’Étape day  

The exact itinerary will depend on the 2024 route.

We will have a kit drop facility at the start, so riders can drop off the kit they don’t need at the start – they are reunited with this kit back at their hotel. Many exchange their jackets for a bin bag which they wear to keep warm at the start; hanging around for 30 minutes or so in a pen waiting to start can be very cold this early in the morning with just a short sleeve jersey on!

What you get from Sports Tours that you don’t get from other operators?  

Only L’Étape official operators can offer many of the things we offer. For example, the extra feed station, pre-race briefing, transfer back to your hotel, mechanical support pre-event and Sports Tours cycling jersey. These things really make a difference to your overall experience.  

We can also bolt on extra Tour De France experiences to your weekend – there’s more about our Tour de France cycling holidays in this article.  

By trusting your L’Étape to Sports Tours, you benefit from the nearly 30 years of experience we and our team of experience L’Étape reps have had in helping riders get the most from L’Étape.

L'étape du tour de France

A look back on L'Etape du Tour de France

etape du tour results

One month ago, 9,000 riders crossed the finish line of the biggest cycling sportive in the world, the flagship of our series of events: L'Etape du Tour de France. But there's more to it than just a sportive on the Tour de France's roads.

Finally back after being cancelled for 2 years due to Covid-19, L’Etape du Tour was coming back with a really hard course. 167 km and 4700m of elevation were waiting for the 16,000 participants. 3 mythical climbs were on the menu: Col du Galibier, Col de la Croix de Fer and Alpe d’Huez. Out of the 3, the Col de la Croix de Fer was probably the hardest and the one which have been misjudged by a lot of riders. Some of them were already walking up this second climb with cramps, definitely not the best of indications with still more than 50 km to go!

L'Alpe d’Huez was the shortest of the 3 but proved to be a real struggle, especially with the heat and the lack of shade that provide this road and its 21 legendary hairpins.

At the front of the race, Stefan Kirchmair crossed the line first in 5:17:27 while the first woman was Flavia Oliveira in 6:31:58.

A race within the race

L’Etape du Tour de France is also where the winners of L’Etape Championships are crowned. L’Etape Championship is a competition running every year from July to July in which riders from all around the world compete. To qualify, you need to finish in the top 3 of any L’Etape by Tour de France event (separate classification for men and women), you will then automatically be at the start of L’Etape du Tour de France in the first wave to compete against L’Etape winners from other countries.

In the men’s race, Michal Kollert took the win by finishing 15th. He was the winner of L’Etape Czech Republic 2 months ago, of which he also finished second last year. The women’s championship was won by Lais Saes from Brazil who finished second in the race! Coming from L’Etape Rio (2nd in 2022, 1st in 2021), it was quite an achievement to set foot on the podium of such a mountainous course. The 2023 L’Etape Championships starts this weekend at L’Etape Edmonton!

Marek’s challenge

Due to the Covid spike just before the event, many of our Social Riders could not come to L’Etape du Tour. Marek was the only one able to make the trip from Slovakia to Briançon. His height and weight are definitely his strength on flat terrain but were not a great advantage when 4700m of elevation await you! As he told us the day before during our training ride “I just hope to finish the race, and not to die on some climb”. That would be quite a challenge for the Slovakian giant!

We caught up with him on the Col du Galibier, where he was still feeling good, despite the heat starting to be an extra challenge for all the riders “It’s not easy, but I’m enjoying the landscapes, it’s really beautiful! And I’m trying to keep my legs fresh to be able to finish the race”. Well, after taking a few stops on the Alpe d’Huez to recover, he eventually crossed the line in slightly less than 9 hours! Congratulations Marek, you’re a L’Etape du Tour de France finisher!

Watch Marek’s day on the bike here .

An international event

L’Etape du Tour is getting more and more crowded with riders from all over the globe, most of them coming from countries where an event is part of L’Etape by Tour de France series. About 35% of riders are coming from abroad to take part in this unique event and 70 countries are represented.

All along the route, it’s easy to spot where is cyclist is coming from thanks to the little flags on their race number. That’s what we did at some feed zones to ask participants from L’Etape countries what they were thinking of the event and how their race was going.

With his beautiful jersey from L’Etape Czech Republic, we met Petr at the top of Galibier: “I’m feeling good, I’m trying to keep the power not too high, because it’s a long day, you have to save your energy. Compared to L’Etape Czech Republic, it’s not even comparable, it’s so hard!”

At a crowded feed zone in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne, Serena, from the USA, was standing out with her pink jersey. As a lot of riders, she was worried of what was coming ahead, with still Col de la Croix de Fer and Alpe d’Huez to climb. “I’m eating every 45 minutes, I’m feeling alright but I know that what’s coming is horror and death” she said laughing.

After such a hard race, amongst all the tired riders trying to recover just behind the finish line in Huez, you could not miss Arthur’s jersey with a big Brazilian flag all over it. He still looked fresh and was happy to tell us what his experience was on the day: “It’s a fantastic feeling, to have the chance to ride on the roads the professional riders are going to take in a few days. I’ve done L’Etape Brasil 6 times, this is the closest it gets to a Tour de France experience in Brazil and I love it.”

L’ÉTAPE GREECE

etape du tour results

Welcome to L’Étape Greece by Tour de France!

In 2023, and for the very first time, the legend of Tour de France, the most important cycling event in the world, joined the Greek myth in the enchanting landscapes of western Greece and Ancient Olympia.

Amateur riders from Greece and from around the world were able to experience the feelings of professional cyclists of Tour de France as they crossed the mountainous stages. The riders had the opportunity to challenge themselves, enjoy an unparalleled combination of Greek nature and ancient history with fully closed roads, and experience an unforgettable adventure. 

L’Étape Greece, like all sporting events of the international series Tour de France, is designed by experts to replicate the French experience of L'Étape du Tour to its very core.

The organization will be held for the second time, on April 6th, 2024, according to the world-class standards of Tour de France so that cyclists fully immerse themselves in the heady atmosphere of the French cycling race while experiencing the same conditions. 

The two options offered by L’Étape - Race and Ride - are suitable for cyclists who want to challenge themselves, but also for cyclists who just want to enjoy a circular ride around the birthplace of the Olympic Games, Olympia. 

If you haven’t explored the western Peloponnese and Olympia, if you want to experience the spirit of Tour de France, if it’s been a while since you did something for the first time, then this is the perfect opportunity to savor an experience filled with adrenaline and strong emotions. The ride in the valley of the Gods will be a stage you will cherish forever.

L’ÉTAPE GREECE IS PART OF THE OFFICIAL TOUR DE FRANCE SPORTIVE SERIES DESIGNED TO MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A TOUR DE FRANCE RIDER IN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN THE WORLD

Remco Evenepoel doit vraiment avoir de bonnes jambes...Réponse dans quelques minutes.

David Gaudu est distancé (13 km restants)

Le leader de Groupama-FDJ connaît une semaine difficile sur la Course au Soleil.

Beaucoup de coureurs distancés (13 km restants)

Soudal-Quick Step accélère en tête de peloton (14 km restants)

Les coéquipiers de Remco Evenepoel veulent durcir la course pour leur leader.

Johan Jacobs est repris ! (14 km restants)

Il n’y a plus aucun homme en tête.

Ineos Grenadiers prend la tête du peloton (14 km restants)

Ce sont désormais les coéquipiers d’Egan Bernal qui impriment le rythme en tête du peloton !

ÇA MONTE À BLOC DANS LES PREMIERS HECTOMETRES ! (15 km restants)

Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) emmène le peloton à fond en ce début d’ascension. Il va y avoir des lâchés !

C’EST PARTI POUR LA MADONE D’UTELLE (15 km restants)

L’ascension est longue de 15,3 km avec une pente moyenne de 5,7% et des passages à 8% !

L’approche de la dernière montée est tendue (17 m restants)

Toutes les équipes essaient de bien placer leur leader au pied de l’ascension.

Les coureurs approchent de la montée finale (19 km restants)

Plus que quelques minutes avant le début de la Madone d’Utelle.

Le point sur la course (20 km restants)

Un homme en tête : Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team)

Changement en tête de peloton (22 km restants)

C’est désormais UAE Team Emirates, l’équipe du leader Brandon McNulty, qui emmène le paquet.

L’écart se réduit petit à petit (25 km restants)

Le peloton pointe à 20’’ de Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team).

Harold Tejada perd du temps (28 km restants)

Le Colombien pointe à 1’40’’ des hommes de tête et à 1’20’’ du peloton. Il ne devrait donc pas réussir à rentrer avant la Madone d’Utelle...C’est un véritable coup dur pour Astana Qazaqstan Team.

Le point sur la course (30 km restants)

Le groupe Harold Tejada (Astana Qazaqstan Team)

Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis) est repris par le peloton (33 km restants)

Plus qu’un homme devant : Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team).

Les coureurs vont entrer dans la dernière descente de l’étape (34 km restants)

Ils auront ensuite un long faux plat pour arriver au pied de la dernière ascension.

Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team) est désormais seul devant (36 km restants)

Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis) a été distancé. Volontairement parce que le peloton n’était plus très loin ? Peut-être. Il n’en reste pas moins que le Suisse poursuit seul devant.

Harold Tejada se rapproche du peloton (37 km restants)

Le leader d’Astana Qazaqstan Team, attendu par plusieurs coéquipiers, ne serait plus qu’à 30’’ du peloton. Va-t-il réussir à rentrer ?

C’est toujours la Soudal-Quick Step qui mène le peloton (39 km restants)

Les coéquipiers de Remco Evenepoel contrôlent l’échappée. Ils ne veulent pas leur laisser trop de champ...mais ne veulent pas non plus revenir sur eux trop rapidement.

Le point sur la course (40 km restants)

Deux hommes en tête : Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis) et Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team)

L’écart se réduit encore (45 km retants)

Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis) et Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team) continuent de perdre du temps sur le peloton : ils n’ont plus que 45’’ d’avance.

Crevaison pour Harold Tejada (49 km restants)

Le leader d’Astana Qazaqstan Team (9 e du classement général) a été dépanné de la roue avant. Attendu par un coéquipier, il a perdu pas mal de temps. Il va donc devoir faire un gros effort pour rentrer dans le peloton. Cette dépense d’énergie pourrait lui être (un peu) préjudiciable dans la dernière montée.

Le point sur la course (50 km restants)

L’écart diminue (53 km restants)

Le peloton a repris quelques secondes : plus qu’1’14’’ de retard sur l’échappée.

C’est Soudal-Quick Step qui mène le peloton (55 km restant)

Mattia Cattaneo travaille pour son leader Remco Evenepoel.

Deux nouveaux abandons (58 km restants)

Anthony Turgis et Pierre Latour (TotalEnergies), rapidement mis en difficulté, ont «bâché».

L’écart continue de se creuser (59 km restants)

Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis) et Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team) comptent désormais 1’25’’ d’avance sur le peloton.

L’écart augmente (très) légèrement (63 km restants)

Le peloton se montre prudent sur une portion descendante sinueuse et trempée. Il compte désormais 1’19’’ de retard.

Les hommes de tête ont parcouru 38,5 km lors de la première heure de course

C’est une belle moyenne pour un début d’étape escarpé.

Le point sur la course (67 km restants)

Ils ne sont plus que deux en tête (70 km restants)

Martijn Tusveld (Team dsm-firmenich PostNL) a subi un incident mécanique et a dû laisser partir ses deux (anciens) compagnons d’échappée.

Trois hommes se sont rapidement détachés du peloton en début d’étape

Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis), Johan Jacobs (Movistar Team) et Martijn Tusveld (Team dsm-firmenich PostNL) se sont échappés en début d’étape et ont pris un peu d’avance.

Cinq coureurs ne sont pas partis ce matin

128 coureurs ont pris le départ de Nice il y a une heure. Notons tout de même que cinq coureurs (tous des sprinteurs) ne sont pas partis : Dylan Groenewegen (Team Jayco-AlUla) , Arnaud Démare (Arkéa-B&B Hotels) , Pascal Ackermann (Israel-Premier Tech) , Rick Zabel (Israel-Premier Tech) et Gerben Thijssen (Intermarché-Wanty) .

Les coureurs sont bien partis de Nice il y a une heure

Le point sur les autres classements

Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) domine le classement par points. Le maillot à pois de meilleur grimpeur est porté par le Français Mathieu Burgaudeau (TotalEnergies) . Celui de meilleur jeune est sur les épaules de Matteo Jorgenson (Team Visma-Lease a Bike) .

Le point au classement général

L’Américain Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) est le leader du classement général. Il devance son compatriote Matteo Jorgenson (Team Visma-Lease a Bike) de 23’’ et l’Australien, ex-maillot jaune, Luke Plapp (Team Jayco AlUla) de 34’’. Les deux favoris initiaux, Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) et Primoz Roglic (Bora-Hansgrohe) sont respectivement 5 e et 11 e à 1’03’’ et 1’44’’. Autant dire qu’on devrait les voir passer à l’offensive si leurs jambes leur permettent. Le premier Français est Aurélien Paret-Peintre (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team) est 12 e (aussi) à 1’44’’ du maillot jaune.

Une étape raccourcie mais malgré tout décisive

Initialement, la 7 e étape de Paris-Nice était longue de 173 km et devait se terminer à Auron au terme d’une montée difficile (7,3 km à 7,2% de moyenne). Mais en raison des conditions météorologiques - de la neige était annoncée sur certains sommets -,  elle a été raccourcie à 104 km . L’arrivée sera finalement jugée au sommet de la Madone d’Utelle, une ascension longue mais peu pentue (15,3 km à 5,7% de moyenne avec des passages à 8%). Il n’en reste pas moins qu’elle s’annonce décisive pour le classement général !
