Tour de Romandie 2009 Dates and Host Cities
January 5 update: The 2009 Tour de Romandie dates have been known (Apr 28 - May 3) since the UCI announced the 2009 race calendar, but I wasn't aware the host cities were announced in November as well. Thanks to Renze Droog from the Netherlands for pointing out
the link I need to get started with our first Tour de Romandie dashboard. Also, I've put together a
retroactive 2008 dashboard with results, photos and video for those in the English world and elsewhere that want to get caught up on this event.
The Tour de Romandie takes place in the old Romandie region, in the French-speaking part of western Switzerland. It was started in 1947 and normally starts in Geneva and finishes in Lausanne, but the order is reversed for 2009.
