Bennati sure chucked a curve ball there.

That he did. Would've been nice if it paid off but not to be. However I was hoping that Sbaragli could pull off a win for DiData but seventh isn't too bad seeing as he got boxed in.

 

Sbaragli is so consistent for DDQ!

Apparently drama is spelt 'La Vuelta' in Spanish!

 

Very interesting statistic that!

The only good thing about tomorrow's rest day is one can follow the Tour of Britain without worrying about missing out on La Vuelta!

Meanwhile in the boardroom:

 

"We decided to suspend the trial of disc brakes in road races following a request to do so made by the Association Internationale des Groupes Cyclistes Professionnels (AIGCP) – which represents all professional cycling teams... We are continuing to evaluate the situation and the test will not restart unless we and those representative groups believe it should..."

Well that's proof for you, common sense can still prevail over marketing

Did you refer to LA in this specific Vuelta thread?

I do in fact know you had him as your avatar for a long time.

 

Edit: after he admitted his sins.

Interesting that you remember that....

Nothing. You started blasting at AC did you not? So please don't be a hypocrite. That is all.

[HappyMartin]

Nothing really to do with this thread but AC doping offense doesn't really compare to LA. It's would be like comparing Aglioti to a guy that lifted R20 from petty cash one day to buy a pie.

Contador is relevant to this thread and I did not blast him either, just mentioned the doping facts that you convienatly left out in your defence of AC

 

Don't make it personal and try stick to the topic.
