(they did however win two three stages along the way) - this came up on backstage pass the other day, as they were discussing DDD

 

 

edit:3 stage wins - http://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/racing/giro-ditalia/orica-greenedge-two-riders-giro-ditalia-124678

Apparently it is raining a lot, the descent of the penultimate climb is going to be very dangerous [emoji85]

Just had a message from friends at the finish. They say it's wet, cold and thoroughly miserable!

Shout out to Louis Meintjes! Rode the TDF and now at Vuelta 2nd in young riders and way ahead of the Yates brothers, I know one of them also rode the TDF. Must only be time now before he steps it up to a podium at a GT.

Erm, is it just me or is there no "Young rider" competition at the Vuelta?
