    Teams & Riders Nairo Quintana discussion thread

    And another day in which Quintana did not move a foot for the team and just tried to get something for himself at the very end. Excellent Movistar tactics one more. Really increadible to think about winning big, then lose the 3rd position. Jumbo knew he had just one leader, posibly the...

    Teams & Riders Nairo Quintana discussion thread

    Vuelta a España 2019 stage 7: Onda > Mas de la Costa 183.2km

    Hello everybody. New here, but a life-long cycling fan, although I do not ride a road bike. I love mountain biking. Movistar is fighting for stages, which is sad, as they are unable to fight for the GC. This is not a team, but a band. Of which I am happy about, because of the long history of...
