Ladies Tour of Qatar Stage 1 LIVE

Museum of Islamic Art - Mesaieed 97 km

A rare oppportunity to see live women's racing as Al Jazeera brings coverage to the women's season opener in Qatar. Hopefully there will be video at the Al Jazeera link below otherwise try the usual options. For more on the teams race see our preview.

In short, it's a windy race for the sprinters and rouleurs usually.

Podiumcafe Dainty Ladylike Tip: Kirsten Wild

Could we see Wild back to her winning ways in 2013? This race should suit her if she has found her legs already.
