I'd rather drink bees.
Don't worry, you didn't miss much after Le Tour, it's all horrible. They make you go uphill AGAIN.
Looking at the course, I see that they have removed the climb up to the Col de la Terrasse from Loriaz, and instead drop you down into the valley before climbing back up to Emosson Dam, which in my opinion seems cruel, as you get to spend another 800m of ascent sweating your balls off in a south-facing forest, instead of the relative cool of altitude and a fairly-sheltered north-facing valley. It also adds a few km and m to the day, meaning the 80km/6000m outing is now 91km/6200m.
Col de la Terrasse down to Emosson Dam was, I have to say, the only part of the day that I genuinely enjoyed, and it's a pity to see it removed.
Have fun!
