I like the tour down under, I like sprinters stage races like this, with one stage thats not suited for them thrown in(well there was the last time I saw it).. I know what to expect from it and you are never sure which sprinter will be on good form... I like the tour of qatar aswell though :S I have no problem with races like this I dont see it as a great achievement to win the overall classification but I find it nice to watch 45 minutes or so of each stage in the early season.
