2013 Vuelta a España, Stage 3: Vigo - Mirador de Lobeira 184.8 Km

[Kazistuta]

I am guessing it was Barguil not Janse again?

Plenty of mistakes on the early classifications on the official page. Nibs is missing too.

 

[DenisMenchov]

roche 9th in the stage.

i think he will be second in gc still.

Nibs is 2nd.

It's a shame the Vuelta doesn't have a young riders jersey, this kid Horner has been coming up this last few seasons, it could have been a good target. What a joke

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

In these topsy turvy times, when Nico Roche actually wins and with 68 year old American pensioners taking Grand Tour stages, it's good to know that some eternal verities have reasserted themselves: For the one billionth time in their relatively short careers, The Great Bauke Mollema finished precisely one place behind Dan Martin.

(Which was actually a pretty good performance by both, given that Mollema had to chase back on, and given that Martin seemed to be positioned right at the back when the climb started).

 

[woodburn]

He was like 12th. I saw the red jersey.

They gave split time. He lost three seconds to second group. Six seconds to Horner.

Nibs is 2nd.

Horner: the living proof of the 40's renaissance in manhood

 

[roundabout]

Seemed like a tougher finish than that lame profile suggested.

 

[murali]

Well I'll rather believe my eyes than La Vuelta website.

i just hope that you are right.

i think then he is just 5 sec ahead of roche
edit: oops! still 8 secs ahead i guess

 

[ILovecycling]

Haha! Look at that! A 41 year old climbing! That's so hilarious! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha so funny!



*sigh* Some people.

Im angry coz favourites let him ride away,not because he is old...lol
Dont talk bs when you dont have a clue what i am talking about my friend

 

[DenisMenchov]

i just hope that you are right.

NO, 8 seconds still.

 

[jens_attacks]

[il_cobra]

after perfomances like this i'm pretty faithfull that ricco will be able kick some asses at giro after his suspencion expires.

why are you complaining that the profile was lame?


the final climb was expected to break up the gc riders, with guys losing/gainiing a few secs.

there is a split at 3 sec-6sec, and 6sec-13sec.

so that is damn good.

pay attention also to magnificent haimar zubeldia, i feel that the 2003 form is back!

Nice to see Horner back at his TOC 2011 level ! Let's see how far he can go...

 

[murali]

why is there so much being said about horner.

he is a good oppurtunist. he assessed what was happening in the back, and timed his charge perfectly.

give the man credit, when he deserves it.

 

[murali]

pay attention also to magnificent haimar zubeldia, i feel that the 2003 form is back!

yep.

he is having a good vuelta so far.

maybe a basque rider could still podium the vuelta!

 

[Descender]

Horner is the oldest leader of a GT ever. In fact, he is more than three years older than the previous record holder (Andrea Noè).

 

[Eyeballs Out]

I could see the Roche / Nibali group being give the same time as the Valverde group ultimately - there was hardly anything between them
