Tour de France atmosphere, 134 kilometres, and 1,780 metres of climbing
L'Etape Argentina by Tour de France starts from Córdoba on Sunday, April 4, 2027. The timed long route covers 134 kilometres with 1,780 metres of climbing; the official event also offers a 64-kilometre route with 673 metres, and registration for 2027 is open.
For the experienced rider training seven to eleven hours a week, this twelve-week plan balances demanding climbing work with deliberate recovery so power and durability rise without carrying avoidable fatigue to the Kempes start line.

Hey, I'm Matti. I spent 11 years at TrainingPeaks, where they trusted me to teach coaches how to coach at TrainingPeaks University. I raced Amateur Elite with Rio Grande Cycling Team and podiumed my age group at Unbound 200 in 2026. I have a degree in biology and exercise physiology from St. Olaf. I'm also a middle-aged dad of three, so I know training doesn't happen in a vacuum. I help gravel riders get stupidly fast without becoming the person who brings a food scale to a party
