I found the reason: the calendar "cal_ti_calendar_private" is called "Privat" by the GUI. So, syncing the "cal_ti_calendar_private" I have my "Privat" on google too.

In the meantime I found that some other people have this problem with Google API, not only on python but also JAVA. Also, while testing I also could reproduce this bug using google web interface :-) I could not find any pattern (not with web interface nor with gd_client.InsertCalendar() from your script. At the end, I run this
Code:
feed = gd_client.GetAllCalendarsFeed()
for i,cal in enumerate(feed.entry):
  print '\t%s. %s %s' % (i, cal.title.text, cal.id.text)
just after gd_client.InsertCalendar() (your line 122) and sometimes one of the cals had the id as the title! So I think that this is some timing issue on google's side. Maybe an .UpdateCalendar() just after .InsertCalendar() would help?

However, we are not lost because I could rename the wrong-title cals using google web interface but I had to do it just after using "--sync-calendars" and before the first real syncing. Otherwise something went wrong with the query (l. 262) because
Code:
feed = gd_client.CalendarQuery(query)
resulted in an empty feed regardless the changes I did in the cal.

I added some additional "print"s to get more infos during syncing and I will use it in the next few days, let's see what happens :-)

Thanks again,
