“Volta a Portugal” - the Portuguese equivalent of “Le Tour de France” it’s a sports event that gets everyone enthusiastic about cycling during a month - specially when a stage of the event happens in your area.

Using the .gpx data that was feeding the official website, I’ve built a tool that allowed the reader to geolocate himself and see if they were going to be able to see all the cyclists passing nearby.
