The organizers have announced that the final stage will climb Montmartre this year. The actual route to be revealed May 21st. Could be interesting!

Due to a foot injury we took a taxi up to Montmartre/Sacre Coeur last spring, rather than public transit. Wasn't sure the taxi was going to make it up the climb! That's going to be an impressive ride!

Joanne--No, I won't be there (I'll be back in France in September), but will be watching from home.

It was a great race with huge crowds on the hill. Most of the commentators on Peacock are hoping that it will be the new annual finish. I don’t want it every year if they don’t add a couple more stages for true sprinters

It was SO cool on tv......but I don't know if it would have been as exciting if it wasn't raining and they didn't take the time before they fully entered the circuit......
