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) |

Boring-ish race by the looks of it. I'd say GVA or maybe Sergio Henao?

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.

Should be a nice race, Kreuziger will be 6th overall like in every WT race this year You mispelled his name a bit btw.

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.

That's the first thing that came to mind when I saw this thread. Such a deluding commercial.

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.

Boonen isn't a three star sprinter.

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.
