Great stage win by Herrada, really putting in a great GC fight against one of the all time greats of ICL. Its too bad however that we have lost Pulido and Grijalba by not making the time limit, they would have been crucial support going forward.

Chevrier not having a great race in Spain, good to see a Suntory rider in the break though 
Cav up against Kittel in the sprints 
Thanks for the reports guys

Wow Domont with the ride of his life there on stage 15, looked so strong and could have potentially done even more than 4th if he wouldn't have stopped there for a while. Up to 6th now, which would be a superb result but obviously it will be very difficult to defend that. No riders OTL and Lang and Cattaneo even inside the top 100 on stages now, so there is a lot to look forward to. 
Thanks a lot Bikex for the reports!

Three more stages of Vuelta and QSC until Semifinal up: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread...st_1371304
Spoiler Everything very tight before the final stages. Kudus justifying Pedal Africa's wild card with two stage wins! |

Some more stage results by Herrada and now even back in rojo. Can Liberty make it happen a 4th time?!

I wonder if our riders will ever win from a break  GC wise they're probably where I expected them to be.
Poor from Degenkolb in the sprint classics QF. Should've qualified from that heat.

Cav beat Kittel in the sprints and is through to the final which is great as he usually sucks in this race.
Fingers crossed.
Kudus on fire at La Vuelta! Come on Chevrier you can step up as well.

The season is nearing it's end so it is also time to discuss where the world championships will be hold. So far we had these locations:
| | location | parcours | | winner | | 2014 |  | Ponferrada | hilly |  | Philippe Gilbert | | 2015 | | Huy | hilly | | Alberto Contador | | 2016 |  | Richmond | cobbles |  | John Degenkolb | | 2017 |  | Kirkenes | flat | | André Greipel | | 2018 |  | Villa Nueva | mountainous |  | Fabio Aru |
Any suggestions for this season are welcome! |

Verona was 2004 (Freire), 2013 was Firenze (Rui Costa). I prefer Verona personaly.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I don't know the course you're talking about, but I'd suggest something where you don't quite know what will happen. Maybe something like ICL's Tour of Rio, with a tough hill but a flat finish.
Kudus now within 2 minutes of Tao, that gap had been 10 minutes at one point. And Tao is still riding really well, nearly mirroring his real life performance. But Kudus is the better rider and I fear he'll overtake my guy. Majka solid, up to 4th now and closing in on TVG, too, but with the ITT at the end I don't think it'll be enough for the podium.
Schorn only 4th in his group, at least it was a close race. This could have been a race without points for us, so I'm definitely happy with a top 16 and a top 32. Congrats to Nowak making the top 8 with his SPR 75!
