- Book 1 of 6: Inside the Tour de France
Barcelona to Paris. 3,333 kilometers. 54,450 meters of climbing. And for the first time in 113 editions of this race, back-to-back summit finishes on Alpe d'Huez, by two completely different roads, on consecutive days.
The 2026 route was built to break the sport's biggest stars — a mountain stage on day three, the hardest opening week in modern Tour history, and a final week that never lets up. This guide breaks it back down for you, stage by stage, climb by climb, rider by rider, so you understand exactly what you're watching and exactly where to stand if you're going..
Inside, you'll get:
- All 21 stages mapped in full, from the Barcelona Grand Départ to the Paris finale, with distance, elevation profile, every categorized climb, and a real tactical read on how each day will be raced
- Every one of France's mountain climbs explained in plain language: what the gradient numbers actually mean, the history behind them, and what you'll see standing on the road yourself
- All 23 teams and 40+ riders profiled, from the GC favorites to the sprinters, climbers, and puncheurs who make the race worth watching
- The historic back-to-back Alpe d'Huez finish broken down stage by stage, including why no Tour has ever attempted it before
- A full spectator's guide: where to stand, when to arrive, and how to actually watch a mountain stage, a time trial, or a bunch sprint like someone who knows what they're looking at
- A complete glossary, a ranked list of the greatest Tour riders of all time, the story of Alpe d'Huez, and a preview of the 2026 women's Tour and its Mont Ventoux debut
Whether you're settling in to watch three weeks of racing from your sofa or packing a bag for the Pyrenees, this is the book you annotate, fold the corners of, and pull out again every July..
