Stage 5 - Friday, March 11: Rognes - Toulon (Mont-Faron), 172.5km

The fifth stage between Rognes and Toulon will be decisive, ending as it does on the well known climb of Mont-Faron, which has already seen action this year during the Tour of Med. The climb averages a nasty 8.9% over its 5.5 km, and perhaps we'll see a repeat of Jens Voigt's Med triumph here. The rest of the stage meanders along until the 25 km, when a series of short climbs will serve to soften things up for the finale.
