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.

The fun ranking

The 4th fastest Gareth of 4. The quickest one did 9:56:42, the median Gareth 10:27:58.

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

Room to improve: your biggest relative loss vs. the M3 median was on Col de Sarenne — 25:27 slower.

Your AI ride analysis

Riding to 11938th of 12733 in category M3, some parts of the course clearly suited you more than others. The numbers point squarely at Col de Sarenne: about 25 minutes slower there than the typical M3 rider. Even your best relative segment, Start → Pied de la Croix de Fer, still ran about 7 minutes over the M3 median — a tough day across the board. Putting more training time into sustained climbing power, rather than short efforts, would target the Col de Sarenne gap specifically.

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, with nothing on it that names you. More in the privacy notice.

Ask me to remove my name

Your other races on this site are not linked to this page unless you ask. If you would like them listed here, use “Link my races” at the top of this page.

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.
