Preview

The organisers of this year's ENECO Tour (Ronde van Nederland), which takes place from August 20-24, are hoping for a rare sprint battle between Erik Zabel, Robbie McEwen and Mario Cipollini. So far, both Zabel and McEwen have confirmed their presence in the five day, six stage event, while Cipollini is not yet certain. The organisers have invited his Acqua e Sapone team, but it's likely that they won't know until the last moment whether Cipollini will start.

The organisers also have secured the starts of Erik Dekker, Michael Boogerd and Levi Leipheimer, making a total of five riders from the top 15 of the UCI rankings. Other names include Ludo Dierckxsens (Lampre), Johan Museeuw, Servais Knaven and Leon Van Bon (Domo), Steffen Wesemann (Telekom), Viatcheslav Ekimov and Floyd Landis (USPS).
