  96th Tour de FranceStage 20 - Montelimar to Mont Ventoux - 167.0 km (103.5 mi)25 July 2009       The searing, windy lunar upper pitches of Mont Ventoux has played a decisive role in the Tour de France for over a half century. Today, the climb featured in the race for the fourteenth time in its history.
