Organizers for the Grand Prix Cycliste de Quebec and Montreal have released the provisional start lists for the WorldTour races, which will take place on September 9th and 11th, respectively.
Quebec will feature 176 riders on 22 teams. Among the headliners are Philippe Gilbert (Omega Pharma-Lotto), Andy Schleck (Leopard-Trek), Samuel Sanchez (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Edvald Boasson Hagen (Team Sky), Robert Gesink (Rabobank), Damiano Cunego (Lampre-ISD) and Levi Leipheimer (RadioShack). In total, five of the top-ten finishers of the Tour de France this year will compete.
Canadians are represented on five teams, led by Ryder Hesjedal (Garmin-Cervelo), who finished fourth last year in Quebec and third in Montreal. Other Canadians include Michael Barry (Team Sky), David Veilleux (Team Europcar), Dominique Rollin (FDJ) and the SpiderTech p/b C10 squad - Francois Parisien, Ryan Anderson, Zach Bell, Martin Gilbert, Bruno Langlois, Ryan Roth and Will Routley. Americans Pat McCarty will also ride on SpiderTech.
For the Montreal race, most teams will enter the same riders, however, SpiderTech will replace Langlois with American Lucas Euser, and Andrew Randell will replace Ryan Roth.
