The first stage of this "TPC" will start at the Acclameur, concert and conference hall, in Niort. After the start the riders will first go off north until Château-Bourdin before going back down south turning around Niort on the west side. They will already have climbed 4 short climbs which count for the King of the "Mountains" (everything is relative, in the Poitou-Charentes the climbs are not that long, difficult or high) classification, before they get to the sprint in Sansais and the feeding zone which is just after that. A second sprint will take place in Usseau and the third and last one will be in Bernay-Saint-Martin where the riders will change directions to continue west. Just after the sprint they'll find a 800 meters long climb at 6% before they go off to the finish in Rochefort, on the Boulevard de la Résistance.Hereunder you'll find the time- and route schedule, the stage profile and the race route on Open Street Maps for this stage.
