The winter Six Day season starts on November 2 with the Six Days of Dortmund (Ger) and the Six Days of Grenoble (Fra), finishing with the Six Days of Berlin next January. In the former race, there will be a total of 14 pairs, and there are several top teams on the start list.

Last year's winners, Bruno Risi and Kurt Betschart (Swi) will be there, along with newly crowned World Madison Champions, Erik Weisspfenning and Stephan Steinweg (Ger). Olympic Madison Champions, Scott McGrory/Brett Aitken (Aus) will be amongst the favourites, along with Robert Bartko (Ger)/Silvio Martinello (Ita) and Guido Fulst (Ger)/Matthew Gilmore (Bel).

Jens Lehmann/Sebastien Seidler (Ger), Andreas Beikirch (Ger)/Jimmi Madsen (Den) should also be competitive, and there will be a good deal of interest in the pair of Erik Zabel and Rolf Aldag, who won this race in 1996.
