Vuelta a Espana 2016

eh eh!
do that ;) I'm going with some friends so I can know, for sure, if we can meet but I would love to.

Well, I can imagine me ridding my fixed in France/Pyrenees but not in Asturias/Picos de Europa. :)

I think I'm going to ride this one.
I rode the Scapin in France so I must ride this one now. They are very jealous :P

^ can vouch for this. Lovely scenery and amazing rides around that area.

Looks like a messy end, must have been in the peloton after another great sprint by Meersman.

wtf, they did it again?

Ouch, did that bollard cause it?

That's not a place where a bollard should ever be installed, quite irrespective of bike races visiting.

Agreed. But this is Spain. Remember Pais Vasco last year?

Terrifying.

The lack of consideration for the riders when it comes to race organisation in Spain needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency.

Saturday's stage could be a good ding dong

Last ridden in 2014 Vuelta. If it's the road/stage I'm thinking of, it's a dead straight ascent and a pure all-out ride of attrition.

Finish was the same, the course was a little more bumpy:

Would Kirby just shut up.

ruining the Vuelta.

Go on Yates

Convicted doper wins Vuelta stage, and it's not Valverde.

Sky lose a rider with a dicky tummy . Kwiatofsky thingy guy.

The Tour had exactly the same as that, no?

Oh. Maybe I missed it.

I think it looked like that if you went to the Tour homepage and clicked on the live tracking link there, but yeah, it's pretty decent.

Great finish today.

After the 1km, watching the seconds tick down as the peloton approached...such squeaky bum.

Convicted doper wins Vuelta stage, and it's not Valverde.

Yates used his turbo to the line there.

How did this happen?
