The Giro d'Italia is in the rearview mirror, and that means Tour de France tune-up season is underway. Everything kicks off this weekend at the Critérium du Dauphiné. One of the most prestigious one-week events on the pro cycling calendar, the Dauphiné has drawn most of the Tour's top contenders – as it usually does – for eight days of hard racing in France. Defending champion Chris Froome will look for win number four, but the competition will be fierce with Alberto Contador, Richie Porte, Alejandro Valverde and plenty of other big names in the mix. A parcours that features a time trial and some very steep climbs will ensure the Dauphiné is an ideal proving ground for the big stars ahead of cycling's main event.
