The object of the to dispute is the new race to Russian stages - 8 days - that should connect Moscow to Sochi (town that between the other will accommodate the Olympic Games Winter in 2014).

Kind of inevitable. A lot of money coming into Sport/Cycling via Russia.
Not sure of the timing though. May should be left alone.
