Stage 02

Stage 2 looks to have the first introduction into some sand at about km 169. It's difficult to tell as the ASO no longer gives any details beyond their little diagrams.

The day starts out with the bikes leaving at 5:30am local time for a leisurely 114km liaison followed by a 300km special. Not to be outdone, the map of the day looks to show quite a bit of a liaison from the end of the special, 326km to the bivouac in San Miguel de Tucuman. Bring on La Salinas Grandes.
