In the upcoming weekend CCC Sprandi Polkowice will take part in Brussels Cycling Classic.
The team is exceptionally international. For the first time in the team’s history, every rider on the roster comes from a different country – Poland, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Czech Republic and Belarus.
Brussels Cycling Classic is 1.HC race. In the previous years the course has been changing many times, but usually the competition has ended with a sprint from a 50-rider group. On the winners’ list of the last 10 editions only sprinters’ names appear and it’s expected that it will be the case also this year.
The route in the 2015 season will include 13 short but steep hills, typical for Belgian races. The last one is located 40 kilometers from the finish. In total there are 201 kilometers to cover.
"Grega Bole showcased good sprinting form in GP Ouest France and he will be the fighting for a top spot in case of a bunch sprint. The task for the rest of the riders is to ride aggressively and to help the Slovenian in the finale," Piotr Wadecki, sporting director of CCC Sprandi Polkowice, explains.
Line-up for Brussels Cycling Classic (5.09, 1.HC):
Grega Bole, Maciej Paterski, Davide Rebellin, Stefan Schumacher, Nikolay Mihaylov, Josef Cerny, Branislau Samoilau
