What would be your ideal grand tour?
TTT which starts out flat and rolling but finishes with an HC climb. The catch would be that the clocks stop after the first rider and everyone else gets a time that they finish with. Think it would be realy cool.
Rolling Terrain with punchy climbs all day with technical descents so that a breakaway can get away finishes after a descent.
Sprinter Stage but on the coast with crosswinds.
Medium Mountain similar to the Ardennes.
Cobble Stage but none of this sort of roubaix stuff I want the Trench and all the toughest segments. Make it only 100km though.
Mini Tour of Flanders
Super Technical TT through a City maybe something like Venice where they have to build wooden ramps so they can go up the stairs make it ~20km. Peter Sagan will run away with this.
Big Mountain day finishing with a descent.
Sprinter stage only 150km with a couple climbs to shell out the weak.
Big Mountains but with super steep climbs. (I want Zoncolan)
Transitional day. With Tight and Twisty roads.
TT through a really long tunnel
Hilly Circuit race in a big city.
Punchy stage.
Sprint stage wide open roads.
Another Sprint stage toward those poor sprinters after the opening stages. This will be survival of the fittest.
Big Mountains
Big Mountains. Steady Gradients
Big Mountains. Suuuuuper Steep with tight switchbacks.
70 km TT on rolling terrain.
Crit in a city
No rest days.
Only two Jerseys awarded one for the leader and one for last place. Last place jersey is also awarded it has a Turtle on it and is purposely made to smell aweful so that everyone is fighting to not wear it. The team with the last place rider is not invited next year
