Stage 4: Tychy - Cieszyn 177.9km

Roy Sentjens and Paul Voß (Team Milram) moved into the top ten in the overall classification by placing 13th and 28th respectively, four seconds behind stage winner Mirco Lorenzetto (Ita) of Lampre-Farnese Vini.

Tomorrow's 149.0 km stage 5 will definitely bring out who will be in contention to win the Tour of Pologne. Check out the very lumpy profile here. There is a 17.2 km circuit, that has a 9.8 km, 3.3% ascent. Not very steep, but sure to become tiring at the very fast speeds they will be climbing. After completing the circuits the stage finished with a 12.4 km climb of 3.7%. The final 4.5 kilometers is 7.0% grade, and becomes lest steep over the last kilometer (5.8%). It will probably take the lead riders about 17 to 22 minutes to finish the last 4.5 kilometers of the stage, so it it will be a lung busting finish for all in contention.
