TdF Stage 18 - viewing spots

Well one way would be for the driver to fit a dash cam in the same way as cyclists do at the moment. The only difference is that the cyclist's...

I run 10+14 on my summer tyres and 11+14 on my intermediates and full on winter muds. And I can feel differences as the week progresses.

I think that you have it the wrong way around: the £10-15 lights on eBay (other marketplaces are available) are cheap copies of Lezyne's originals....

Does it happen outside the Moldavian Embassy? Or maybe it's the chip shop.

Difficult to say, not tried to view a stage before but with the last climb at 212km of 222km I'd assume it'll be a breakaway day. Stage 17 is a big mountain day and 19 is the big TT so I'd think a breakaway may get away and the GC contenders will want to have an easy day.
The action could happen on the final climb with whatever breakaway attacking each other to go for the stage win. There are only four cat 3 and 4 climbs so there may even be a sprint for minor placings, its difficult to know without seeing the profile though.
