Fear the peloton until the 2nd stage of the Tour today and the 18 km over the Grand Belt Bridge

After meticulous testing at the time of opening 109th edition of the Tour de France, this Saturday the runners will also have to take extreme precautions in the first stage in line. Not because of the rain that suddenly sprayed the test route in time, but because of the demands of the layout and its frightening outcome. The second attack of ‘Big Loop’ will end once the cycling caravan completes 18 kilometers of Grand Belt Bridge avoiding the cold water of Baltic Seaending at this one 2,000 meters from arrival Nyborg.

There was in the peloton, especially among the cyclists called to do good things in the races, a terror of the consequences of the strong gust of wind in the group – a force of almost 20 km / h – and the possible reductions that could happen. A tension that can be transferred even kilometers before the world’s third longest suspension bridge and could mark the stage’s progress and who knows if the consequences could be even more deadly.
