The 2010 Tour de Romandie (64th Edition) cycling road race started on 27 April and finished on 2 May in Switzerland.

2010 pre-race favourites included 2009 champion, Roman Kreuziger of Liquigas–Doimo as well as teammate Ivan Basso.

While not a favourite to win overall, local Alexandre Moos has a lot going for him as this will be his 12th and final Tour de Romandie.

Sagan was pleased with the win, but pledged his loyalty to Liquigas–Doimo team leader Roman Kreuziger.

There are three hard stages and a time trial to comeSprinter Mark Cavendish could not hang in the mountains and was dropped from the peloton with 45 km to go.

Starting in Vevey (Switzerland), the route will pass UCI headquarters in Aigle before turning up into the French Alps climbing the Categorie 1 "Pas de Morgins."

The final climb – the Categorie 1 Col du Corbier – is 6 km at roughly 8% – not easy.
