Tomorrow, Friday 31 August 2012, the very first edition of the World Ports Classic will start in Rotterdam in The Netherlands.
The idea for this race, organised by Amaury Sport Organisation, in collaboration with R.W.C. Ahoy and Creative Sponsoring, was born at the Grand Départ of the Tour de France 2010 in Rotterdam. The race is made up of two stages, which will most probably both end in a bunch sprint, between two of the biggest European harbours in both directions.

A two day race which will take place in two countries of which one is my home country and an area of another country in which people speak the same language ... I think it's thus quite normal that velowire.com gives you some further details about it!
