Stage 2 - Monday, July 9: Dunkirk - Gent, 168.5km

Monday sees the second stage of Le Tour returning to Europe and it passes into Belgium across the mythical roads of Belgian Classics like the Tour of Flanders, Het Volk and Gent-Wevelgem. Echelons and crashes could play a part in this nervous stage and the strong wind off the North Sea will undoubtedly be present. 'Tommeke' Boonen will be looking for a big win in front of the home crowd in Gent.

Sprints:
Km 46: Boezinge (Belgium)
Km 87: Westende (Belgium)
Km 140: Aarsele (Belgium)
