STAGE 1, SAN DIEGO
|
Stage 1 of the race both started and finished in San Diego. The route went
almost 109 miles through southern San Diego County, with two intermediate
Point Sprints and one Class 1 rated climb. It was mainly a relatively flat
Stage, and since the climb was about half way through the Stage, would end
in a mass sprint finish.
Last years Champion, and current UCI World Champion, Peter Sagan, Tinkoff,
won the Stage and became the Overall Leader, thus would wear the Leaders
Jersey in Stage 2. This win was Peter's fourteenth Stage win, and overall
Stage win leader, in the Tour of California's running statistics.

STAGE 2, SOUTH PASADENA
TO SANTA CLARITA
|
This Stage of the Tour covered 92 miles which were mainly in the Angeles
National forest. There were four categorized climbs, three were a Class 2
and one was a Class 1, and two intermediate Points Sprints. There was an
early breakaway of 22 riders that didn't last, it was caught by the Peloton
before the first King of the Mountain climb, the Class 1 up to the summit
on Angeles Crest Highway, about 15.6 miles into the Stage.
At about 24 miles into the Stage a new breakaway formed with four Racers,
including Benjamin King, Cannondale Pro Cycling Team. This breakaway
eventually was reduced to just two Racers with 5 miles to go, Benjamin King
and Evan Huffman, Rally Cycling. These two Racers were able to hold off the
Peloton for the rest of the Stage and Benjamin King won the Stage eight
seconds ahead of the Peloton.

STAGE 3, THOUSAND OAKS
TO SANTA BARBARA COUNTY
|
Stage 3, was the Queens Stage of the 2016 Tour, ending at the summit of the
Class HC climb up Gibraltar Road just outside Santa Barbara. The Stage
started at the Amgen headquarters in Thousand Oaks and went through the
Santa Monica Mountains, where there were two rated climbs, a Class 3 and a
Class 2, before following the coast north.
After a long, mainly flat, route that followed the coast there was a small
deviation through the mountains with a Class 3 climb about 29 miles from the
finish. After that climb it was back down to the coast and mainly flat again
until the start of the Class HC climb that started on the approach to, and
then finished at the summit of, Gibraltar Road. The total length of this
climb was 7.8 miles with an average grade of 8%. This brutal climb took it's
toll on the Racers and splintered the Peloton into several groups. Julian
Alaphilippe, Etixx - Quick-Step, managed to hold a strong, steady pace, and
won the Stage 15 seconds ahead of Peter Stetina, Trek - Segafredo. Due to
the rest of the Racers splintering into many groups, Julian took the lead of
the Tour. It was nearly 23 minutes before the last of the Racers made it to
the Finish.

STAGE 4, MORRO BAY
TO LAGUNA SECA RACEWAY
|
This Stage was the longest of the 2016 Tour at 134.8 miles. This was also a
first in that it went along the famous coastal route of Highway 1 through
Big Sur northward, all other times the Tour has been on this road it has
gone southward. Once near the finish the course went inland along Carmel
Valley Road, making the last 18 miles a short tour through the Santa Lucia
Range, giving the route a Class 2 climb 5 miles from the finish which also
had a Class 3 climb once inside the Laguna Seca property. Along Highway 1
there were two intermediate Points Sprints and three Class 3 climbs for a
total of five rated Points Climbs total along the route.
Even though this Stage was after the gueling Queens Stage, and going south
to north had to deal with headwinds along most of the route, the Racers were
able to make it to the finish in 5:16:33 hours, an average speed of 25.7mph.
The Peloton had broken up but had three large groups within about a minutes
time at the finish. The finish came down to a large sprint with 12 racers
and was won by Peter Sagan, Tinkoff. This was Peter's fifteenth win in the
history of the Tour, and his last first place finish in 2016.

STAGE 5, LODI TO
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE
|
This Stage of the Tour was essentially one long climb from the Central
Valley to Lake Tahoe. It was the second longest Stage at 132.4 miles, just
2.4 miles shorter than Stage 4 the day before. It was also the Stage with
the greatest overall climbing at 13,300 feet, more climbing than the Queen
Stage which only had 8,700 feet of climbing. But since it climbed for nearly
the entire route the average grade was relatively easy and there were no
serious climbs, only three rated climes, two Class 2 and one Class 3.
As usually happens in these Stages, a large breakaway formed about 14 miles
into the race. The breakaway stayed steady for most of the race, but the
gain in altitude and the long previous Stage took it's toll on the Racers,
and slowly the breakaway whittled down to just three riders with about 20
miles to go. The three Racers remained in the lead, and in the final charge
to the finish Toms Skujins, Cannondale Pro Cycling Team, won the Stage.
Lake Tahoe was also the first Stage of the Woman's Tour. The course for this
Stage went all the way around Lake Tahoe, for a 72.7 mile race with one
Points Sprint and two rated Climbs, one early in the Stage and one to the
Finish. Megan Guarnier, Boels - Dolmans Cycling Team, won the first Climb,
the Sprint, and the Climb to the Finish, thus taking the lead in all the
individual classifications except Best Young Rider. Photos from the Women's
event follow the photos from the Men's event.

STAGE 6, FOLSOM TIME TRIAL
|
The Time Trial course of this years race was almost identical to the course
used in 2014, the year Bradley Wiggins, Team Wiggins, won the Stage about
one minutes faster than the second place finisher, and built an overall lead
he held onto to win the Tour. Unlike in 2014, when the Time Trial was the
second Stage, this year the Time Trial was the more conventional sixth
Stage. The route was the same for both the Men's and Women's Tour's.
The course of the Time Trial was essentially an out-and-back, with the only
major variation being the locations of the Start and Finish. The course was
an almost flat 6.3 miles, with slight climbing to the turn-around which was
about 180 feet higher in elevation than the Start/Finish. On the way back,
though, the slight climb turned into a slight decent. The total length of
the Time Trial was 12.6 miles. Rohan Dennis, BMC Racing Team, the Australian
National Time Trial Champion, won the Stage in 24:16.04 minutes, making for
an average speed of 31.15mph.
This section has photographs of the Women's Team that won the Stage,
Twenty16 Bikerider, Rohan Dennis, BMC Racing Team, Men's winner of the
Stage, the Men's Tour Jersey Wearers racing the Stage. Also there is a photo

STAGE 7, SANTA ROSA
|
The Seventh Stage both started and ended in Santa Rosa, with the 109 mile
course taking the Racers through the forests and along the Coast on Highway
1 for the second time this Tour. The majority of the course was through
rolling and hilly sections through the forest but also along the coast,
which gave the Stage six rated Climbs, one Class one, two Class 2 and three
Class three, the most in a single Stage of the 2016 Tour. In classic fashion
a large breakaway formed and lead for most of the Stage.
The final 20 miles or so of the course was essentially flat, which included
four finish laps around Downtown Santa Rosa. This allowed the front Peloton
to catch the breakaway and regroup. The Peloton had settled into two groups
as the Stage progrssed, a front group of the faster, less fatigued, Racers
and a rear group of the Racers who were feeing the affects of the previous
six days of racing. The finish ended up being a mass sprint of the most
promising Racers, the second group finished about 26 minutes behind.
Alexander Kristoff, Team Katusha, won the Stage in a photo finish with Peter
Sagan, Tinkoff, who come in second by about one inch.

STAGE 8, SACRAMENTO
and the AWARDS CEREMONY
|
While Sacramento has hosted several Stages of previous Tour of California's,
including two Overall Starts, 2016 was the first year Sacramento was the
last Stage of the Tour. The course was essentially flat, both starting and
ending in Sacramento, and following a narrow loop south and then north near
the Sacramento River, making for a very fast 85.7 miles. There were two
Points Sprints in this Stage, one 56.5 miles into the Stage in Clarksburg,
and one the first time the Racers crossed the Finish line in Sacramento. The
course made three subsequent laps around the Capital before the Stage and
Tour ended the fourth time the Racers crossed the finish.
Since Stage 8 was mainly flat the Racers were able to keep up a very fast
pace, and it ended in the typical mass sprint. A small breakaway had formed
and kept it's lead until the laps around the Capital, but was eventually
caught and Mark Cavendish, Team Dimension Data for Qhubeka, won the Stage in
3:01:12, an average speed of about 28.6mph. During the Awards Ceremony the
Awards for both the Men's Tour and Womens's Tour were combined.
