Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Today I'm at the Stage 6 Feedstation. The bikes are quite a way off yet but the team cars are here with the food bags....
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 From what I'm reading online, the breakaway group has some big names in it. Much like this day in 2016!
The Ghost Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Peloton is strung out, and the weather is coming in a bit.It’s going to be an unpleasant day for them.
Knersboy Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 One of the many reasons I love to watch cycling is the scenery. Must say this autumn Vuelta is really pretty. The colors with the leaves turning are fantastic.
The Ghost Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Amador and Carapaz taking a gap on this descent.
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 I could see the weather coming in from the foodstation, which was on a long straight-ish climb. By the time I left with my stash of goodies (photo's to follow) it was raining hard. Now I'm home to watch the end of the stage and it's still raining and the roads look well dodgy!
The Ghost Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Looks like the others have closed that gap now.
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 They're about to come into Biescas - the town they started from this morning!
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 On the radio this morning they were talking about snow in Formigal. Not sure if they meant snow on the ground, sleet or it was actually snowing. Either way its going to be tough and cold.
The Ghost Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 I seem to have missed why Roglic finds himself isolated, what happened?
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Roglic in trouble?15:06Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) is chasing on his own some 20'' behind the bunch with 22km to go. Roglic gets back15:09Goerge Bennett (Jumbo-Visma) has helped the overall leader of La Vuelta 2020 return to the bunch.Gorka Izagirre (Astana) is some 20'' ahead of his chasers with 21km to go. The gap to the bunch is down to 3'11'
The Ghost Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Ah, apparently he had a mechanical and had to work back into the group.
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 One of the many reasons I love to watch cycling is the scenery. Must say this autumn Vuelta is really pretty. The colors with the leaves turning are fantastic. The colours here are amazing at the moment. What you can see on TV is exactly the same as what we have all around us. I must say, although I'm not a big fan of Winter, I do like having actual seasons :-)
Bonus Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 wow - this road was not expecting a Grand Tour to come up it this year!
