Race Information
The Tour de Québec will be back on July 9-12 with five stages in the region of Quebec. This year, the Tour will feature four new and exciting stages. The Tour will start on the Orleans Island with a 135km road race. The second day will see riders perform over a very fast 5km individual time trial following the St-Lawrence river, just by the Quebec City bridge.
Later on that day, Quebec City crowds will have the opportunity to enjoy a great show as the riders will do a 50km criterium in the area of Beauport. Last year's final stage in St-Augustin will be on the Saturday, with riders doing 110km. The last stage (100km) will be in St-Anne-de-Beaupré on a pretty difficult course which will showcase the best riders in the overall classification battling for the victory and the KOM competition.

- Stage 1: Île d'Orléans road race- 135km
- Stage 2: Boul Champlain time trial- 5km
- Stage 3: Beauport criterium - 50km
