    Planning our trip to Dusseldorf, I’m sure detailed route info is put up on the TdF website about now but nothing has appeared yet.

    Is the route available anywhere else? We’re camping between Dusseldorf and liege and plan to ride to catch the prologue and stages 2 & 3. Keen to start a bit of route planning:)

    iirc the route comes out as soon as the Giro finishes out of a little act of respect

    No, it’s released in about October at which point Cycling Weekly work themselves into a frenzy over the chances of [insert favourite British Rider] winning it. And a host of riders attempt to second guess whcih stage will form that year’s Etape du Tour and start booking flights and chalets…

    I’m after the detailed route and itinerary. I’d managed to work out which countries to head for from that one thanks

    The road book and the detailed route maps usually appear about a month before the race. Usually just after the Dauphine.

    The stage start and finishes are announced in October, but not usually the exact route (except for the few opening stages).
