The eight-day #TdRwanda22 started today with a 4km prologue. I'm really excited to see what kind of race we get this year. There are some familiar stages for 2022, the Mur de Kigali makes a welcome appearance (four times in total) and the start list is DEEP.

📸 @tour_du_Rwanda The prologue (which I am thinking of as stage one) shuffled things up nicely, but I don't see any major ructions in the GC until stage three. A classic Rwanda stage, it packs 2,300m of climbing, almost all done at 1,700m+ above sea level where the air gets thin.

Decided to make a thread of panini Tour de France stickers and what I think the riders look like.
