Oh my...some people really find it hard to enjoy cycling. And it's not just you, there are several others too. I'm really sorry...

With all the chaos, it's not very easy to rate this edition, but it's not even close to the worst GT I've followed entirely. There have been some horribly boring Giri and Tours. This one had some intriguing, albeit insignificant, moments. Worst Vuelta...maybe...can't say I remember all of them...

I don't miss GT stage for trivial reason, such as horrible route😁 I only complain afterward then come back the next day. Guess I'm one of those.

Everytime it indulges itself in series of highways and unipuerto stages, the Vuelta always gives me the vibe of an inflated Middle Eastern races in terms of dreary repetitiveness. And as it's a grand tour, I'm always compelled to follow it like a chore. Riders are the only aspects that give it a...
