Okolo Slovensko... In Croatian that would translate into "Around Slovenia".

Well, translation remains the same...

Anyway, today the peloton is going to the Tatras, like I already wrote earlier, sadly the track of this year is very dumb only 1 day in the Tatras and the finish is even made for the sprinters in Ružomberok,

 

 

But still todays stage should be funny

That profile seems to make it look much, much, much harder than it probably is  Looks like a seriously hard mountain, but then you look and see the average gradient for the whole thing is like 3%  

 

At least Demare should still be there I think, not so sure about the two other main sprinters so it'll be interesting indeed

His number of top-5 finishes without a significant win this year is getting incredible Surely he should win at least one stage in this race..

Also, unbelievable so many bigger teams than this Terengganu keep contracting rider after rider of who you can already bet they'll perform less than someone like Reguigui, who would at least be good for some important points for a ProContinental team or something.
