Course Preview
It's a stage that doesn't quit. A total of five categorised climbs will meet the riders for stage five, three of which are second-category and two third-category. The race ends on an uphill ascent which will favor an all around sprinter, capable of enduring the chaos of a sprint, but handy enough to manage the gradient. However, the parcours is challenging enough to predict the unpredictable.
