By David Hunter Tarnów > Bukovina Resort 161km The Queen stage but not as we know it.

By David Hunter Sanok > Rzeszów 226km Okay, who’s idea was it to have a 226km sprint stage?

By David Hunter Zamość > Przemyśl 201km I love the look of this finish.

By David Hunter Lublin > Chelm 218km The race begins with a very long sprint stage.

By David Hunter The world tour racing continues with the 78th Tour of Poland. The organisers have decided to alter this year’s route, meaning it’s easier and the ITT will have a large say in the outcome of the race. I’m not a fan of the new route, especially what used to be the Queen stage. Stage…

By David Hunter Comunero de Revenga > Lagunas de Neila 146km The classic finish at Lagunas de Neila.

By David Hunter Roa > Aranda de Duero 148km Another chance for the sprinters.

By David Hunter Busto de Bureba > Espinosa de los Monteros 172km The first of the GC days.

By David Hunter Tardajos > Briviesca 175km The first of the proper sprint stages.

By David Hunter Dinant > Quaregnon 189km The final stage is one that will interest the sprinters, but the puncheurs will sense a chance of upsetting the fast men. The issue is a couple of little kickers that are in the lap circuit, they don’t last long but they are tough.

By David Hunter Tokyo > Fuij Circuit 232km A race like no other. With so many factors to consider, my head is about to burst.

By David Hunter Neufchâteau > Fleurus 205km Harder than it looks.

By David Hunter Plombières > Érezée 173km The organisers have had to change the planned start to the stage, the peloton start the day 46km into the old route. This removes a long drag of 13.5km at 3%, but they’ve decided to add another lap of the finishing circuit, which means we now have three ascents…

By David Hunter Zolder > Zolder 120km The second stage had to be cancelled after the horrific floods in the local area, but the organisers have managed to come up with an alternative at short notice, well done to them.
