7th stage Antholz (ITA) to Niederdorf in Val Pustera (ITA)
After a rather casual day (at least as far as the race statistics go) the
penultimate stage will require full effort from all participants once again.
Two serious ascents grace the stage profile adding up 2,788 meters over the true marathon distance of 42,195 kilometers. Unstable weather conditions forecast for the day may thwart the itinerary yet but racers may not mind an abbreviated program one bit. After all, fatigue is an almost universal symptom at that point in the race and a less demanding stage would afford much-needed regeneration for the crown jewel of stages into Sesto, Italy, on the last day of the 2008 GORE-TEX® Transalpine-Run.
