August 12 update:

5 Stages, 336 Miles, over 30,000' of Climbing

From the official site:
Tour of Utah organizers are working hard to bring the toughest stage race ever staged in America, and by doing so are working closely with all cities and counties to provide the best routes and greatest spectator friendly courses.

The race will consist of 5 stages over 5 days of racing. There will be 2 flat stages for sprinters and 2 days of climbing that will push the limits of the riders farther and harder than they have ever been pushed, with the final outcome of the race to be determined by a 12-mile time trial. The Tour of Utah organizers are proud to say that this is the toughest bicycle stage race in America.

The race will see climate and environmental changes that cannot be found anywhere else. Riders will find themselves pedaling fast and furious across the flat landscape of the desert west of the Wasatch Mountains, climbing high into the alpine regions where every winter produces the greatest snow on earth, and racing around the circuit courses of the downtown metropolitan areas that make Utah so diverse. The race will start and finish in areas such as Salt Lake City, Ogden, Nephi and Park City, and travel through the many towns of Summit, Wasatch, Weber, Utah and Tooele counties.

Where To Watch

Stage One:
Prime spectating spots will be at the start and finish line, both Sinclair Sprints located in Mt. Pleasant and Fountain Green as well as the KOM at Hill Top on Highway 89 north of Fairview.

Stage Two:
As the first mountain stage of the Tour of Utah, best viewing will be at any of the four KOM’s: North Ogden Pass, Trappers Loop (feed zone will be near by),  Big and Little Mountains. Both start and finish locations will offer opportunities to see your favorite rider.

Stage Three:
Just about anywhere along this fast four-corner course. Situate yourself near the start finish to visit the vendors and catch your favorite riders at sign-in.

Stage Four:
The Queen Stage will again be another best view at the KOM’s. Anywhere above Sundance will offer the majestic views of the Wasatch Mountains and great racing. If you plan to view from the finish, get up the canyon early and visit Snowbird or watch amateurs finish their climb up Little Cottonwood canyon.

Stage Five:
The Miller Motorsports Park will provide a fantastic backdrop for what will likely be the pivotal Stage in the 2008 Tour of Utah. Best viewing is in the pit area. Watch your favorite riders as they go through warm-up routines and get up close and personal with all the trickest machinery on the NRC circuit. With the Start and Finish located back-to-back adjacent to the pit area, you will be able to witness riders as the take off for 12 miles of pain and watch them finish from the same spot! Digital timing boards and big screen TV monitors will allow you to keep track of the top riders as the race progresses.
