The cyclists are back for stage 10 of the 2023 Tour de France on July 11. The riders will set off for a 167.2-kilometer, or 103.89-mile route from Vulcania to Issoire.
The Tour de France went for nine consecutive days until the first rest day. The first part of the race has been completed and teams likely spent their day off planning strategies on how to move forward. As the next phase of the race begins, the cyclist will need to push through extreme levels of fatigue.
Michael Woods won stage 9 and became the first Canadian to win a stage this year. Woods beat Matteo Jorgenson to the finish line in one of the most challenging routes of the race so far.
Stage 10 will be physically demanding for both the climbers and the sprinters of the group.
Unlike the routes seen in the race so far, there is no grand summit or sprint finale in this stage. The climbs will challenge the cyclist's endurance as they need to be aware of keeping their energy consistent while preparing for opportunities to attack.
