Abu Dhabi Tour.
At least:
1) It is 2.1 instead of WT.
2) The atmosphere is breathable.
So instantly better than Beijing!!

Only 24 riders? That's gonna be either a stretched season or a few less races. Even with new sponsors looks like a noteicable budget cut.
Absolutely. A single injury and they can't ride 3 races simultaneously. Europcar struggled with I think 27 this season.
And knowing the team's crash/injury record... Well they'll just have to let Sven Kramer ride some races, then.

Meh.
Well, not a bad moment for it to happen. First race he was scheduled for is Paris-Nice.
Edit:
Even says himself that he planned a week rest around this period. So probably won't matter much, he only picks up training a little bit later

To sum it up. There was a report of Rodriguez planning to tackle the hour record, but it turned out to be a joke. Apparently, December 28 = April fools in Spain.
There you go! ;-)
On a more serious note. Wanty are hoping to participate in the major Italian WT races (MSR, Giro & Lombardia), but they're also applying for the Tour and Vuelta.

I've made a world map of pro-cyclists (WT+PCT) for season 2015.

Great work!
Awesome to see Belgium as one of the biggest countries for once 
If we'd make one for cyclo-cross, Belgium would be just huge  |
