The longest women’s stage race at present is about 4 stages and around 250 miles in total, I’m all for equality but the suggestion is ludicrous and poorly thought out.

Great day for G, bad day for Cav.No real surprise with Cav, not enough miles in the legs over the past two years. Big surprise that Kittel didn't make the cut, looks right out of form.Should be fun watching Sky manage Thomas and Froome now.
French TV ratings are way down, spectators are copiously booing Sky riders and there are even some twats trying to land punches on them or push them off their bikes. While I do not condone this behaviour, it is fair to say that the Sky team are seen as moneybags cheating c***s who are ruining the Tour which is now a one-team race where nobody else can compete.I don't follow cycling so I wouldn't have a clue. What do you think? Lazy, French-bashing responders need not post.
