don't have a chance to look, but will there be fun with road furniture next year?

I've heard they're trying to bring back some prosperity to the polka dot jersey, should be fun to watch.

I think the route sucks because a) I won't be able to go this year and b) see a).

I've climbed Galibier the back way and it's tough. Last 1K is killer.

I think the polka dot jersey will continue to be won by second class climbers. A few are always going to attack in big mountain stages and the contenders don't care.
