Apparently its last years course, but backwards, so if Farrar won, must be pan flat! Could just as well pick this one out of a hat!0 -

There's a description of the course here:

Basically it's flat apart from the three climbs of the Waseberg. The last climb is with 15 km to go, so enough time for the sprinters to get back on and organise a decent chase.
You can watch Gilbert attacking on the Waseberg here to judge how hard the climb is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ea-zYKbux7E0 -

I'm going to regret this, but I'll pick Pozzato because he's got so much to prove, he might just do something.0

This seems to be a complete startlist (except no.1 - maybe Hushovd has gone on strike?). It might not be up to date though. e.g. Gilbert is listed and he's not riding.
