TDF 2013 rumours

the final route of the 100th tour de france will not be unveiled before a couple of month but here's how it could look : most of the stages are made up but we already know that some cities have already applied tobe part of it so then its a matter of putting some of this info together (courtesy of of cyclisme hebdo that did the hard work)

1st stage : 29 June Porto-Vecchio > Bastia : 200 km Official
Flat stage – sprinter to take the yellow
2 stage 30 June Bastia > Ajaccio : 155 km Official
Mid/low mountain, flat finish with the following difficulties: Bellagranajo (723 mètres ), de la Serra (807 m) and Vizzavona (1 163 m). probably a new yellow after this one.
3 stage 1st july Ajaccio > Calvi : 145 km Official
Same as above : San Bastiano (415 m) , Lava (498 m ), Palmarella (374 m) and Marsolino (443 m ).
4 stage 2 July team time trial approx 20kms in Nice Official - sounds a bit short to make a create big gaps
