A road bicycle race was organized in Gdynia last Sunday. There were two races: one for UCI Elite licensees and one open ie no UCI license was required. The first race were attended by top Polish road cycling teams (with CCC Polsat Polkowice as the strongest and well known) and two Poles from OmegaPharma: Michał Gołaś and Michał Kwiatkowski. Gołaś and Kwiatkowski dominated the race: they broke away 80 kilometers from the finish line and the peleton was unable to catch them. Gołaś won the race BTW.
350 amateur riders with different skill levels took part in the other race. The winner was Baltazar Brukalski while Piotr Wadecki---once one of Polish most successful cyclists took the 2nd place (he won M40 category). The last rider achieved the finish line 2 and a half hour after the winner. BTW there was a limit of 25 kmph to be classified but finally it seems not to be enforced. The distance was 130 kms---pretty much as the route was hilly.
There are plans to held the race annually. Look here if you are interested (unfortunately the site is only in Polish)
