67. Tour de Pologne starts tomorrow



Tour de Pologne was held first time in 1928. Since 1952 is organised annualy. Until the early 1993 was open for amateur cyclists only. Since 2005 the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) made TdP part of the UCI ProTour. Since 2009 it become the part of the UCI World Ranking calendar. It's one of the best sport events in Poland.

For 7 days the page about goalkeepers is going to change into a page about cyclist.

Happy because my favorite cyclist, Marek Rutkiewicz, is going to be the leader of the Polish national team. A year ago he was 6th in General classification and won Mountains classification.
