Winner and median are over classified finishers only. The gap is what you add to their time to get yours: + means you were that much slower, − that much faster.

Among classified finishers only, ties sharing a place. Not an official classification — no timekeeper has ever scored this.

Club ranking

The only VCE finisher to be classified.

See the whole VCE club page →

Among classified finishers from this club only, ties sharing a place. This is not the club classification, which scores each club on its 3 best times.

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M3 median was on Col du Galibier — 52:37 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Out of 12,733 finishers on this route, you crossed the line 12,272nd in the M3 field — a result worth digging into segment by segment. Your closest stretch to the pace was Start → Pied de la Croix de Fer, where you trailed the M3 median by only about 4 minutes. Where the day really slipped away was Col du Galibier: you were about 53 minutes slower there than the M3 median. Next time out, put some focused work into Col du Galibier-style terrain — closing even half of that 53-minute deficit would move you up meaningfully.

Times are chip times from the official race timekeeping. Search another rider.

Where this comes from. This page is built from the official results of L’Étape du Tour 2026, published by Sport Innovation / TimeTo. Names, bib numbers and times are reproduced from that public classification; the split analysis and rankings on this page are mine. Athletes who asked to be anonymous in the official results are anonymous here too.

Is this you, and would you rather it were not? Write to me and I will take your name and bib off this site, usually the same day. The result itself stays as an anonymous line so that the race totals and averages remain correct — nothing that identifies you is kept.

Ask me to remove my name

One thing worth knowing before you write: removing your name here does not remove it from the timekeeper’s own results, which is where it is published and which this site only mirrors. To have it taken down at the source, ask the event organiser or the timekeeper directly — otherwise it stays online there, and any other site that mirrors them can pick it up again.
