well the vuelta website has one, but it's not as good as the TDF one. It just shows new news. No time gaps.

definitely not as good, but thanks anyway

few weeks befoe Vuelta press almost forget Basso..they was talking about Sami , Valverde, Vinokurov..
Vinokurov is planning something..I never have seen him so skiny..and still he can TT.
Please don´t tell me that he did not know..that he will ride Vuelta.
Cancellara..he is TT Chuck Norris
p.s. Vuelta has started..

If it rains today, the organizers will take a detour and not ride the 1500 meter cobbles that comes today with just 28 km to go.

I agree. I think vino rides clean now. And he does not have any intention of wining the vuelta. He said it would be close to imposible. But he was hoping for a stage win. I dont think he will win but he will be a exciting man to follow. Personaly i think Evans or Valverde will win.

Best live stream by far is by Universal here: https://vuelta.universalsports.com/
Fantastic interface, with map tracking, gaps, and distances in addition to the tv stream. The commentary is also way better than it was during the tour. |

I've rode al large part of the course yesterday and it amazes me the peloton isn't in pieces yet.
The wind was horrible and we also had rain, and the sidewins made it hard to stay in the group.
But somehow it's sunny now. Even when we left at 12:00 it was raining and there was wind... |

I have my money on Farrar here.
Also A. Schleck doesn't seem to have any GC ambitions here sitting almost at the back of the pack.

Boonen vs. Bennati vs. Farrar
They all seem to have similar speed and be in tip top form that they haven't been in before this season
So whoever positions himself well and times his sprint right will win

I think that we shouldn't count Columbia out. Eventhough they haven't the best sprinter, they might have the best train. |

Greipel is better than Farrar and Boonen. But he doesn't seem to be in form.
We'll wait and see.

My tip is Boonen. I'm torn between him and Bennati. But I want Farrar to win.
