Team Giant-Alpecin returns to France this week to take part in the 28th edition of the Tour de l'Ain. The four road stages will provide opportunities for the sprinters, climbers and attackers to meet the challenges of this parcours.

One of the most mountainous short stage races of the calendar – which became open to pro riders in 1993, four years after it was created – Tour de l’Ain has dropped for the 28th edition its traditional prologue in favour of a road stage which will see the sprinters get a rare chance of nabbing a victory.

From Jérôme Coppel. “The Tour de l'Ain is a great race to start my farewell to competition with complete serenity.”
