No matter what, everyone should watch this interview. Epic beyond belief
His post-race interviews have been the best of this Vuelta, truly rofltastic material. I think the best one is the one after his win on the Mirador de Lobeira, when, after two questions where he struggled to make any sense, the interviewer asked him in English and he kept speaking in Hornerish.
He's trying. Gotta give him credit for it. A guy like Wiggins wouldn't have tried even if he spoke the language fluently

Matthews with a great sprint there. Argos had the best lead out, but faded. Farrar had a good run but ended up glued to Matthews wheel until 10 meters to go really. Not sure who got 3rd.

It's Nikias Arndt you are talking about there.
This guy is 21, rode (not overly impressive) in the CT last season and finishes a brilliant third now after three weeks of hard GT racing.
Really delighted by his performance.

And like this finishes the most boring Vuelta I've ever seen with the most stupid winner ever. Well, bring me now Montreal. Should be more fun.
You really think it was that bad? I think we've seen some good racing. It was not the best GT of the year, but nowhere near as boring as the 2012 Giro. Horner winning is kindof bs though.

To be fair the actual racing wasn't really that boring at all, some of the mountain stages were a bit disappointing but the flatt(er) stages invariably threw up some excitement; I think your view is just clouded by the performance of Horner
. No Rabobank orange or Euskaltel orange.
