Stage 5 highlights from the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift 2023. There’s more varied terrain for the peloton to tackle on this 126km stage from Onet-le-Chรขteau to Albi. There are four fairly short but very steep climbs along the route, making it tough for any sprinters hoping for a stage win.

Seriously? You cut out the sprint between 2nd and 3rd? A rare flub for GCN's normally excellent overviews!

So basically, only stage 7 will have mountains to climb and then it's over. Rather disappointing.
will there be a real mountain stage?
Demi, you do the crime you pay with time ๐ณ๐

Since I first noticed the name Bauernfeind some months ago, I have been wondering about the origin of that name. In my country, about 170 years ago, in the mid 1800'ies, when we got our first more or less democratic constitution, one of the leading parties had the main goal to improve conditions for the peasants. The name of that party translated to English would be Friends of the Peasants, or translated to German Bauernfreunde. It makes some sense. If I understand the name Bauernfeind correctly, it means Enemy of the Peasants. I don't think, Ricarda is an enemy of the peasants, but still I can't stop wondering about the name.
This event has been a bust, if we're honest. The women's tour needs more quality riders and more investment. It could take a long time to get there. The obvious problem is that you've got a tour with, apparently, only one quasi-legit team. Either SD Worx does the pulling and chasing or nobody does it. There is no ambition in the peloton. We've had at least three stages with lone breakaways that nobody joined! That's bad enough, but then in those stages there was also no real chase group, except for at the very end of one of them. This was supposed to be a sprint stage—and yet one lone rider took off and won the race! Absurd. No sprint, no nothing. Reusser, from Worx, decided to chase to apparently give herself or another Worx rider a chance at the stage win–but, again, no one helped (until it was way too late) and Reusser and Worx wisely decided not to waste the energy. Worx has the yellow jersey and doesn't want to burn out all its riders trying to chase down lone breakaways every day when nobody else in the peloton will do anything.
What a weird cut that you don't see the sprint for second place in the end ๐
Is this live on YOUTUBE every day
Why is the White jersey for men under the age of 26, and for women under 23 years of age? Why is it different?
