WELCOME BACK, YOU FILTHY ANIMALS!

It’s Year 3 of the Holiday Tour de Duole, and we’re kicking things off with a mandatory ""neutral"" warm-up on Makuri’s Chasing the Sun, because we know you haven't seen actual sun since November.

Join our fearless High Inquisitor, Jack Boren, for this initiation rite. Today is about checking your tech, shaking out the cobwebs, and preparing your excuses for why you won't win GC this week. While this is officially a ""warm-up,"" we all know someone is going to attack the first incline, sprint and finishline to secure those coveted jerseys for at least one measley day. Will you try to resist?

Remember the rules: Chill TF out, race your weight, calibrate your power meters and if you aren't connected to the UT/ID ecosystem, you are lovingly unwelcome.

FINISH THE TOUR!
