And where else than in the Olympics and possibly worlds will you see riders from obscure cycling nations attack in the first kilometers? 

 

Would be cool if will be one of them.

What a crazy course for the riders. ARD commentator mentioned that the changes i altitude are comparable to the tour de France stage to Andorra-Arcadiz...

Let's go Vincenzo  Though i think we would have a surprising winner, maybe Chavez, maybe Martin, who knows.

Tony Martin? - No, it's already planned that he abandons after some time to save energy for time trial
