Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020
Later than usually is in the season, it is still time for the 2020 Tour de France Contest
You have to re-draw and improve 2020 Tour de France
Constraints
- Gran Depart should be kept the same way (Stage 1 and 2 starts and finishing in Nice, in same points. You can switch finish of stage 1 and 2 or also starts, but a finish point should remain a finish point and a start point should remain a start point)
- Of course you have to end TDF in Champs-Elysees. This means that stage 20-21 transfer shall be 'realistic'
- You cannot repeat key parts of Tour de France 2019 real stages
- You have to put a stage start or a stage finish in at least 7 different france regions
- You can freely choose what to do before Alps or Pyrenees
- 2020 Tour has Covid-19 problem. So, to simplify things, you are not allowed to leave France for the whole route. All the Kms of Tour de France shall be in France.
- You must have from 5 to 7 stages for pure sprinters, Paris included - and no more than 2 of them consequently
- There should be at least 2 high mountain stages that does NOT end in a MTF
Deadline will be Sunday 20/9/2020, when the first rider will cross Tour de France 2020 Stage 21 line. Or 23.59 if the stage won't happen
Tour must be done using Tour de France - 2019 profiles, with Large X-Size and normal slopes on to have an easy comparison between different routes.

Re: Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
si possono ripetere arrivi di tappa del 2019 che sono proposti nel tour 2020 reale?
Ad esempio l'arrivo alla La Planches des belles filles c'era anche l'anno scorso e c'è pure quest'anno

Re: Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
My Entry: maps/tours/view/15873
Distance: 3345.02 Km
Flat Stages: 7
Medium Mountain Stages: 4
High Mountain Stages: 8 (6 summit finishes)
Time Trials: 2
Distance: 3345.02 Km
Flat Stages: 7
Medium Mountain Stages: 4
High Mountain Stages: 8 (6 summit finishes)
Time Trials: 2
- The route embraces the "Vueltafication" of the Tour more fully, with difficult first and third weeks. The second week is comparatively easier to compensate.
- Stages 4 and 17 are high-mountain stages that do not have a summit finish.
- Stages 3, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 21 should end in bunch sprints, but the wind could be a factor on any of them (except the final stage, of course).
- The race visits all ten regions of metropolitan France, and all five major mountain ranges.
- Most transfers are less than 150 km in length. There is a long transfer before the first rest day, slightly longer than the one in the actual Tour, and the penultimate stage finishes close to the Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport.

Re: Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
maps/tours/view/16101
Description:
Tour will visit all mainland regions but Bretagne. Initially I wanted to visit all regions - however, after 2021 Grand Depart was moved to Bretagne I decided that I'll do stages in this wonderful region next year.
My tour, just like original one, will visit five mountain ranges but in different order - Alps, Pyrenees, Massif Central, Vosges, Jura and once again Alps and Massif Central.
My tour will have more time trialing because I think it is not enough with one ITT on penultimate day. However, mountains will be hard and climbers will have their chances as well.
For stage towns, I picked reasonably large cities, departmental centers, ski resorts and villages near legendary climbs. Smallest stage town is Luz-Saint-Sauveur (1000 inhabitants) which is about the same size as Laruns (1200 inhabitants) on original route.
Stage transfers are realistic. During rest days riders will travel about 100km to neighboring departments. Stage transfers between stages will not exceed 120km-130km. Final transfer, Roanne - Paris, is 400km long and can be done by TER/TGV in 3,5 hours.
5 stages will be 200km+, four of them will be second week. Thus average length of second week stages will 204km.
Main characteristics:
3400km in length
29 climbs will be 2nd category+
7 flat stages (stages 3-4, 7, 10, 13, 18 and 21)
2 hilly stages with one uphill finish (stages 11-12)
3 medium mountain stages (stages 2, 9 and 15)
6 high mountain stages with four mountaintop finishes (stages 5-6, 14, 16-17 and 20)
2 ITT (stages 8 and 19, 71km in total)
1 TTT (stage 1, 18km in total)

Re: Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
Here is my Tour:
maps/tours/view/16269
I tried to keep a similar distribution of stages, but changing all the essence of the race compared to the real one. First, stages are globally much longer, with 7 of them over 200 km, and have, in general, more denivel than the real ones, much similar to Giro than to modern Tours. That will help to see some "new" things in the last week, usual in Giro, not so in Tour or Vuelta. Mountain stages have also a different outline. Trying to avoid seeing a Ineos/Jumbo train until the last 500 meters, stages are made, first, to encourage long rage attacks, but they also include different type of climbs, longer and higher than the ones we saw in the real race this year, that gave us a good show in 2019. Added to this, the ITT has been moved to the eleventh stage (for opening gaps before the decisive part of the race) and it's now longer and flatter, something we haven't seen in the last editions of the Grand Boucle. At last, something I also missed in this year's edition: mythical climbs; have also been included, but not forgetting about innovation and new discoveries, that are also part of the incentives of this race.
Here you can see the stages:

Re: Contest #7 - Tour de France 2020 [Cat. 1]
Hi everyone!!
This is my Tour de France 2020 proposal. maps/tours/view/16074
I've tried to be innovative with less sprints, more medium mountain stages and terrain for breakaways and harder high mountain. Also, my TdF finishes with a hard and short cobblestones stage in Roubaix, which will decide the general classification. This design passes through 8 different regions and has finishes in each big mountain zones (Pyrenees, Massif Central, Alpes, Jura and Vosgues). My TdF has:
- 3587,23kms
- 8 flat stages (1 of pavés)
- 1 hilly ITT of 51kms
- 5 medium mountain stages
- 7 high mountain stages
- 4 of them ending in a KOM
- 84 categorized climbs
- 8 HC cat
- 16 1st cat
- 22 2nd cat
- 15 3rd cat
- 23 4th cat
