Stage	Day	From	To	Distance
1	Sat 4 July	Monaco	Monaco	15 km	Individual time-trial
		The 15km time-trial departs from Port Hercule, up Avenue Ostende to Casino Square, then blvd Princesse Charlotte, Blvd Jardin Exotique to Les Revoirs (above the Princess Grace hospital), swings back to the east onto the Moyenne Corniche. Then there is a narrow, rather tortuous descent from the peak of the route at 207 metres behind Beausoleil down to Roquebrune-Cap-Martin and back into Monaco along avenue Princesse Grace.
