Farrar on the hunt for stages

The circus that is the Tour de France is about to be underway in Monaco, and there will be a new rider keen to be showing himself in the bunch sprints: Garmin-Slipstream's Tyler Farrar. The 25-year-old from Wenatchee, Washington will embark on his first Tour start on Saturday, but will be revisiting some familiar roads around Monaco.
