Sky rider to decide on program by December: Chris Froome has reiterated that he may skip the Tour de France next year in order to focus on the Giro d’Italia and said that a final decision on his 2015 program will be taken in December.
When the Tour route was unveiled on Wednesday, Froome immediately voiced his reservations about the course in a statement posted on his website and suggested that he would consider riding the Giro and Vuelta a España instead. In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport at the Saitama Criterium in Japan, Froome explained his rationale further. (cyclingnews.com)

After Rafal Majka's two stage wins in this year's Tour de France and Michal Kwiatkowski’s sensational coup at the road world championship, Polish cycling seems to be finally back in the mainstream of the cycling world’s attention.
President Boguslaw Komorowski invited Majka and the National Team to Krakow, where the team was awarded honorary titles. World Champion Kwiatkowksi and coach Piotr Wadecki received the Golden Cross of Merit. (cyclingquotes.com)

While race director Christian Prudhomme demonstrated his ability to get down with the kids at the 2015 Tour de France presentation in Paris, next year's route has Chris Froome very much questioning his participation.
Nevertheless bullish in an accountant's grey suit, Prudhomme - all 1.90m of him - took to the stage to wax lyrical about the exponential growth of cycling the world over. (uk.eurosport.yahoo.com)

In 2014, Winnipeg hosts a weekend with the Canadian National Championships followed by the Manitoba Grand Prix UCI Race. The course begins with sweeping grass turns and off-cambers within view of Winnipeg’s brand new Museum of Human Rights.
By the time a quarter of a lap is finished, however, the course takes a large departure from the grass, dirt and mud known so well to traditional cyclocross. Pavement and cobblestone stretches turn the course into an urban environment, which should create some fast racing over the next two days. (cxmagazine.com)
