Prologue (www.amgentourofcalifornia.com)
The Tour of California will kick off with a short, intense individual time trial of 3.4km.
The flat, non-technical course will keep the time gaps small and provide a unique opportunity for the sprinters to take hold of the leader's jersey before the race heads into the hills. Nestled in the heart of the Stanford University campus, the Stanford Oval will be a prime viewing spot, where spectators can catch a glimpse of the speeding riders coming in and going out to the finish line at the intersection of Palm Dr. and Museum Way.
