stage 7 preview Surrounding the big famous Alps, in all directions, are smaller
mountain ranges. Stage 7 is a medium mountain stage that finishes in
one of these ranges to the north of the Alps. The Jura Mountains  aren't visited very often by the Tour de France and the cat 2 finish climb to Station des Rousses
ski resort has never been used before. The stage also starts with a new
host, Tournus, in the Burgandy region, where stage 3 of the 2009 Criterium du Dauphine started.
"The Jura" is a great recreational cycling area with lots of narrow, quiet roads among lush forests and climbs that aren't too difficult.
Six categorized climbs including three cat 2 climbs in the second half will be featured in this 161 km stage. The last climb, Côte de Lamoura (14 km, avg grade 5%) summits just 3 km before a ski resort type flat finish so this stage favors a good climber who packs a decent sprint. Lance Armstrong thinks there will be 50 or so guys sprinting for the win. With rain forecasted for Saturday, stage 7 could be more difficult than expected
