Küssnacht - Küssnacht
Stage Overview
Commentary David Loosli
This year the Tour de Suisse does not start with a prologue but rather an opening stage around the Rigi. A highlight for all spectators, as the cyclists will pass the start and finish line of Host City Küssnacht several times. In sporting terms, this first stage should not be underestimated. With the difficult climb to the Michaelskreuz Chapel, we could see a shortlist of contenders in the overall classification on the first day of the Tour.
