Hi,
First day wasted by an obstacle course which make our own rides look real hardcore

Hi,
Just catching up, yes Nibali get more than one rocket that day
Manager is also ejected and their account (Nibali and manager) is a bit tuned down to say the least, Nibali reckons just 15 seconds was gained

Good to see cycling making the news for a story of good old fashioned cheating! How would the cyclists he left behind feel seeing him zoom off into the distance?

Saturday's crash has made me question the morality of watching this sport. I don't like a game where people end up in a coma...
But then players die in footy just as often.

Hi,
Not sure what you could do about the crashes.
But I am surprised that the riders don't dictate where the support vehicles can go and when, a support vehicle for each rider
I think after the latest incident the riders are starting to discuss it.
I don't watch for the crashes as its always disappointing.

Expect to see the race live on weds, and will see if Dumoulin is the real deal. Going for a froome/quintana battle.

Hi,
In the past even Tony Martin can single handily win a stage.
Defending your position is where it gets tough, especially the day after exertion.
Altitude training takes several weeks? and tails off after three weeks so I wonder if you do a tour soon after another how you fare,
have UCI banned atmospheric tents during competition?
Dumoulin admits to loosing weight and keeping power, wiggo & froomey have done that, not sure froomey has done it in such a dramatic way?

Re: la vuelta 2015 Stuff Of Nightmares Today
Hi,
Not seen it yet but 187 feet per mile for 87 miles
The opening describes it as "Stuff Of Nightmares"...........
Designed by joaquin rodriguez, a compeditor.
I remember last year or two years ago a stage was four of one of my training courses, 28 miles with over 4300 feet of climb, 153' / mile, one laps enough for me..............

Re: la vuelta 2015 Kicks Off On Sat 22nd Aug ITV4
Reports now saying Froome is out with a fractured ankle. Seems to have been a rather crash strewn Vuelta this year to say the least. They really need to get the motorbikes in hand as well. It seems ridiculous that we can have 2 riders from the same team taken out of the race by the very people who are meant to be there to help them...
