Tour de France 2023 – Report Week 1
This post is a recap of the Tour de France 2023 week 1/7 stages…
Stage 1
I started last Friday at our stop-over near Montréjeau, heading for the Port de Balès.
We had a little trouble navigating there and as I looked at the route on the Strava app, I decided to start a recording.
Which turned out to be a good thing, as I managed to get rid of the Garmin recording at the end of the stage🤦♂️
Tour de France 2023 – Taper Week
Taper week for my Tour de France 2023 has begun.
Next Friday, stage one of my Tour de France 2023 is on the menu.
Therefor, it is only logical that tapering has begun, right?
One day I might find out what that actually means for me, but as usual, I have no clue.
It’s all well documented – more or less – for that one day “race”, but for a multi stage event…
Tour de France 2023 – Countdown
Tour de France 2023 countdown has begun. I haven’t planned much yet, though…
Four weeks from now, I will be on my brand new Trek Émonda for stage 2 – or 3 – of my Tour de France.
It will be day three, but you should know I usually kick of with a prologue.
A tradition I might actually break with this year, as my prologue’s are nothing like the pro’s short (T)TT’s to kick off many grand tours.
But this years Tour de France – two possible GC contenders short after day 1 – didn’t get off to an easy start either.
So, looking at what I have planned, I might start with stage 1 as well…
Tour de France 2023
I finally got to cycle the Pyrenees during my Tour de France 2023.
Okay, that should probably read “in the Pyrenees” for I cycled in the central part of the French Pyrenees range.
It would have been nice to cycle the “Raid Pyrenees” that is (also) available as a Tacx series of RLV’s.
This is covering many Pyrenees climbs, from East to West, and I’ve done that indoors.
