Paris-Nice will start on Sunday. Zdenek will ride it for the first time. “I look forward to it,” says our favorite. Omega Pharma-Quick Step starts with a great selection. “Our goal is to win a stage.”
“I think this course suits me,” says Styby.”This year there are no long climbs and no time trials, but the stages are very hard though. I would like to fight for the general classification. I could be one of the leaders. We will see.”
Tom Boonen, Jan Bakelants, Nikolas Maes, Gianni Meersman, Gert Steegmans, Stijn Vandenbergh and Niki Terpstra are his teammates in Paris-Nice. “A lot of those will start at the same classics as me. Our first goal here is to win a stage. Maybe in a sprint with Boonen or Meersman.”
“We would like to have a good results in the general classification too. I had great training days in Mallorca the past few days and I feel good. I’m looking forward to the race.”
