Paris-Tours has been dropped from the World Tour calendar, in favour of the loss making Tour of Beijing, so Sky don't have to ride. I assume they've decided to conclude their European season with the Tour of Lombardy.
I like Paris-Tours, it's a nicely balanced race that gives the opportunist a better than even chance of outwitting the sprinters. It's a shame that the UCI have chosen to drop it from the top tier.
