Butterbean Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 So with Le Tour done and dusted, and us all being thrilled by Froome and his amazing win, it's time we get over the sadness that pervades our lives and look forward to the Vuelta! With a couple of TDF riders declaring themselves out of this one, who is your bet on?
EZRider Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 If Nibali is riding I will give him a vote. Had good form in the Giro and who knows, maybe a double in him after all!
T-Bob Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Some where new to spend time when I should be working. Thanks for the set up and here is to espana and all it's craziness. Anyone know who's confirmed and who's fav's (a part from Hansen!) EZRider and jaxtun 2

kosmonooit Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Vincenzo is doing it, and he is certainly one of, if not the fav. I am sure we can expect Purito as well El Berto wont be there to defend, he is getting ready for the 2014 TdF. Cannonale: apparently Ivan the not-so-terrible is leading the team. Apparently a very mountainous parcourse.
BeegMig Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Hate to say it. But I think Contador has a good chance.

Apparently a very mountainous parcourse. I must say, as much as I love a sprint finish, there's nothing quite like a brilliant mountain course to see attack after attack... Pure cycling... Can't wait! igknot 1
BeegMig Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Okay. Kosmonooit,, if He was riding he had a good chance Edited July 24, 2013 by BeegMig
T-Bob Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 El Berto wont be there to defend, he is getting ready for the 2014 TdF. Hopefully he can do better next year. I'd love to see J-Rod take it.

EZRider Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 ELEVEN summit finishes!!! Donder! Would be a race for Quintana but I don't think he is riding.
jcza Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Keen to see the Sky line up before picking a winner. So far Nibali & Rodriquez SyncSA 1
