I'd be more happy to see stage 1 ridden in opposite direction, Not too many long and sharp ascents here in Poland and one of the best known is being wasted a bit...

You did manage to do something quite extraordinary which was to put a rider who's in the Tour de France, riding in a different team.  (Pinot at AG2R)
Rest in Peace Wouter Weylandt and Xavi Tondo

Boring-ish race by the looks of it. I'd say GVA or maybe Sergio Henao?
Feel free to PM me if interested in any graphics work.  |

He was on the official startlist of Tour de Pologne And I wasn't thinking while doing this, you should be happy I took 4 minutes of my life to do this at all
Just kidding

No prob, always good to have a thread to guide me through the races eheh So, I'm thinking now that perhaps Fuglsang won't be riding the race, since Pinot was shown there and he's in the Tour...

Yea, thought that too. I guess we'll see soon enough.

I might watch stage 6, but other than that I don't see many reasons to tune in this year.
I hope Leukemans can do something here, he hasn't done much this year and has struggled for form a bit.

Patrick Gretsch is also listed, but he's at the Tour as well
I really hope Degenkolb features nicely in the sprints, although he's possibly not in form. I can only see stages 5 and 6 where he doesn't stand a chance.

Well, they're not that wrong.
If you look at last year's race, there are similarities:
Germans win most of the time, but the overall goes to someone else

Hoping for a good Norwegian week. LP for the GC and Kristoff and Hushovd for stage wins.

Oh jebus....again?
Didn't we just spend a month in Poland?

Boonen isn't a three star sprinter.
Winner of American Championship races which I can't remember since my sig was deleted :L

Yup.
PS: The Wehrmacht did so, too, and look where it ended. Exactly two years later, more than a million people died in Russia because of the same guys.
Sochi 2014. Be ready.

Look at the competition and Boonen´s wins this year. He must have those three stars as sprinter.
