Does Tour of Tukey have a very challenging route this year? As always, the official profiles tell their own stories (I appreciate that they include the lengths of the neutral zones), but it doesn't seem like the worst parcours they've ever had.

The Kiran climb on stage 4 is not even a half Babadağ, but it should still cause plenty of damage.

Stage 6 has the Selçuk Meryem Eni/Meryemana climb.

2013, never forget.

8 riders with just around 1:30 in Turkiye.
A little under 60 Ks to go.

Frankly; I'm not even gonna bother listing the name, coz they probably gonna get caught.

Astana about to score big in turkey. Very few climbers there with at least one really decisive mountain finish and astana sendung lopez, poels and masnada
Yeah, unless we see a Sayar-level sputnik performance from a CT team this race should be a lock for them.
