Zabel heads T-Mobile at Benelux

Erik Zabel may have decided to leave T-Mobile to seek other opportunities elsewhere for the last year or two of his career, but the popular German sprinter will still lead T-Mobile's efforts at the ProTour Eneco Tour of the Benelux, which starts tomorrow, Wednesday August 3 and runs until August 11.

The team will be going for stage wins in the eight-day tour, which divides its time between Belgium and the Netherlands. The parcours is mostly flat, but does include some of the terrain used for the Amstel Gold and Liege-Bastogne-Liege Spring classics.
