60th Vuelta a Colombia 2010 Milestone - Aug 1st - 15th

[DAOTEC]

Thats absolete, that's why all those Pro T/CT/C sissys never dare to show up cause they would be taken to the cleaners in all disciplines.

Can you imagine those so called PT GC contenders in a stage that starts at 2500m and finishes at 3600m over 150k ?

More from yesterday:

BabyFace got himself snookered here !

what is seen as flat in colombia is seen in europe as hills or even mountains.

topography shouldn't vary country by country, or continent by continent. that was a finishing incline, not flat. no matter how you "describe" it.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

you remember the talk of "Spanish flat" or "Basque flat" in the Vuelta al País Vasco? Where the profile seems flat but it's actually really bumpy, it's just that the climbs there are are really steep so they don't include the lesser ones?

It's like that, but to a factor of 10, in Colombia.

Or just because they don't care for this stage race?

Exactly

I remember 'boring flat' stages in the Vuelta that had more height meters and difficult climbs than Liege Bastogne Liege according to Sebastian Langeveld.

that's where in diretto took me. No idea if there's streaming video.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Don't click on en directo.

Look at the front page. Underneath the "En Directo" bit there should be a box with the heading "Señal en Vivo". In it you will find a short youtube video. THAT is where the video will appear, in place of the youtube video, when they are broadcasting it.

Oscar Sevilla keeps the yellow jersey.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Solis and Ladino came in at 3'33" so no bonus for Henao.

The stream was on, it was just late.
