The 2026 Tour de Suisse ITT - stage 4 of this years event
https://etappenorte.tourdesuisse.ch/aarburg/
Its a fairly! flat stage so expect fast times.
We start from Sissach station and cycle to Langenbruck then continue climbing a little more to the top!! before a fun descent down the other side to Egerkingen. We will need to navigate the roads and will be at the side of the ITT route to cheer the riders on - we have choices where to stand before we can make our way to Aarburg and the event village itself.
Below is a map of both routes - the group ride is orange and the competition route is red.
The timetable for the Womens competition starts with training at 09:30-10:30 with the first competitor starting their timed ride at 10:45 in Aarburg. That means we can expect then to be on the course between 11:00-12:30 for us to cheer them along.
My plan is to start in Sissach at 09:00 and it should take up between 2 and 2.5hrs to get to the ITT route. Once we arrive we can decide exactly where we want to position ourselves - it will be possible to watch from one point, go to another section and watch more from there, before we continue to Aarburg itself.
The timetables are below for Women, the Men are in the afternoon.

If you sign up to the event on Strava, I will make sure the route we are riding is the route on the event too.
If you have any questions, please either email me on basellandvelofrauen@gmail.com, send me a message via Strava or comment on this blog.
Remember we start in Sissach on the side of the station with the bike racks and no busses!!
I look forward to it - lets keep our fingers crossed for the weather.
