No wonder they attacked Roglic when he crashed yesterday. You take away Quintanas 25 odd seconds he gained yesterday and hes 100% out of it now.

We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Watched stage 13 and that has to be one of the most brutal climbs I've seen. Looked absolutely horrible. God bless la vuelta

Danish TV2 are pretty good for cycling coverage, as they tend to show every single bit of live-coverage they get.

I think the online NBC stuff has all the coverage available, unlike the TDF I'm fairly sure the Vuelta doesn't air every km of most stages.

Valverde seems to be completely unbothered that Roglic is there with him. Probably just cares about having gotten rid of Nairo
