Has the route for the 2003 race been planned out yet? I've been looking for websites about the 2003 race but can't find any. The 'official' site doesn't have any info about the 2003 race.

Anyone know of sites with TDF 2003 info?

Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure the itinerary has been planned, or at least proposed. It seems like there were some articles on it back in the spring. I think it they would have to have it pretty well nailed down by now to give the host communities time to plan and prepare. Can't point you to any specific sites, though. :(

Found this on cyclingnews:

"Next year the Tour will start in Paris with a prologue time trial around the Stade de France. The first stage will start next to the Reveil Matin cafe in Montgeron, where the Tour started in 1903. From there, the Tour will visit the towns of the 1903 Tour: Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Nantes, as well as crossing the climbs of the Col d'Izoard and Col du Galibier in the Alps and the Col du Tourmalet in the Pyrenees."

The full route will be presented on October 24.
