At 202 kilometres, stage 2 of the Tour de France runs from Düsseldorf, Germany, to Liège, Belgium. Most of the route travels on German soil. Via Mönchengladbach and Aachen the riders head for the arrival town of Liège-Bastogne-Liège, yet the finish is not on a nasty climb in Ans, but on the wide Boulevard de la Sauvenière in the city centre. En route the riders race gently rolling roads, so the fast men can rest assured. The finale belongs to them.
