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.
Did you start watching the Vuelta last year? And even in that case I'm not sure I'd agree with that.

Well, as a Farrar fan, I am disappointed that this is how his last ever race in Europe ends, but it was his best result of the Vuelta, so...

Is he retiring or moving back to North America?

He's been linked to UHC. |

This was a great comedy show, but when does the real Vuelta start? |

Apparently he is going back to UnitedHealthcare

He's been rumored there and he's damn well not getting a ride on another WT team.
So that being said, UHC doesn't ride any PT races.

1st American since Armstrong to win GT. This means something.
I expected someone like Van Gardener would do that. But never the less. Hope he was clean. |

He's trying. Gotta give him credit for it. A guy like Wiggins wouldn't have tried even if he spoke the language fluently
Wiggo answers in decent French, when he can be bothered (not every day, especially since he's won TDF).
No idea whether he speaks another language. |

Strange. I can't see any guy named Armstrong winning a GT when I check palmares.
But maybe it's because there's some GT I'm not aware of ?

Landis doesn't count, but Armstrong does... |

I remember that. That moment when Horner won in Exxon Duke seemed a lot better than now.

Finally, this farce of a Vuelta is over. Now I can sit back, relax and wait for Salvatore Puccio to win the WC.
