And a decent prologue, a 60k TTT and a 35-40k ITT. Spice it up with some tough summit finishes, some punchers finishes and then find out who the best rider is instead of these GT’s that are now catered to climbers that can’t do anything else except for climb well.
If someone’s 2 minutes behind after the TTT but there is a medium and then a high mountain stage in the days after where they can make up on the heavier time trialist, it might again encourage action instead of just having a group of 5 climbers look at each other all the way to the top of a climb.
