    Just a quick heads up to Dave and to start a thread about it.

    The race is from the 9th to the 13th, Not 10th to 14th as in the game đŸ˜‰ The distances for the stages are here http://www.tourofbeijing.net/route/2012-route/

    Still not start list as of yet

    Apparently all 18 UCI pro teams will be there though đŸ˜• So going on last year, the only other team will be the Chinese National Team :B

    I guess they aren’t going to update and we’ll just have to go on the news feed. I’ll update more teams just now đŸ˜‰

    Only 1 team I can’t find. Astana….. đŸ˜‰

    Ray – Argos Oil are from Holland. Shimano are from Japan but do have parts made in China and also Singapore and Malaysia. ARG also aren’t a world tour team. They also have a Japanese rider and DS.

    Why people think sport should be any different from any other part of life and not be political is beyond me.

    Argos is a Japanese Oil company and I believe the Japanese have been expelled/advised to leave China?

    It’s a shame because Degenkolb would have been a popular rider Yaah?

    Ah right, I thought that had all settled down again now. All over a bit of rock aint it?…..Falklands anyone?

    Looking at the profiles its only stage 3 that might cause a few problems otherwise its a sprinters tour. As it comes in the middle of the race it’ll be interesting to see if anyone wants to go for it cos they will no doubt win the tour on this stage.
