Ever been to Poland? I hadn't been to eastern Europe before this trip to the Tour of Poland. In fact, without looking at a map, I think either Italy or Germany is the farthest east I've been in this continent. It's a certainly different culture from the entire  amalgamation of western Europe. Hotels, food, and general accommodations have been nice, so I'm taking in this cultural adventure - even if the roads are a bit rough and, umm, let's say aggressive on our undercarriage.For a race overview with a few cultural observations, check out these entries over at Cervelo.com. Please send questions in the form of comments on this here blog if you're curious about Polish culture. Or Czech for that matter since we raced about 3km into the Czech Republic yesterday.Pre-Race, Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3, Stage 4...UPDATE!No update from Stage 5. Stage 6.
