There are like 4 or 5 climbs like Mende from Tour 2010, or Mur d'Bretagne from Tour 2011 and Purito involved and perhaps an in form Gilbert
Mirador de Ezaro for example

dlwssonic said:haha a week or so ago you were so depressed about contador not doing well in the vuelta.
LaFlorecita said:Tehe that's why I posted I am full of confidence, I was depressed a while ago but now not anymore, people have talked to me and I see now that Alberto will be awesome, besides Andy will never be on top form after not riding a bike for 4-6 weeks.
dlwssonic said:duh......
I wanna see andy on form to see a real competition but its not going to happen I think.
Contador is obviously going to win the vuelta unless something bad happens.

LaFlorecita said:Haha...
Yes I hope he didn't jinx Alberto.
T-Nielsen said:Nah such things doesn't exist.
Btw I wanted to ask you. How on earth did you, in a legal way, find a picture of a sleeping Contador.

LaFlorecita said:I didn't post the picture though. But it is a screencap from this TV advert: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08_HIWuacUk
And there are some other pics as well, the obligatory "in bed with leader's jersey" pics but I don't feel like looking those up

Zam_Olyas said:velasco himself is silly *hides* and there are ways to bypass aunt susan and the mod squad
LaFlorecita said:Yeah I'm trying to ignore the title change
ggusta said:Are you going to be at the vuelta? Can we look forward to seeing you at the side of the road on one of these MTF's going cuckoo for cocoa puff's along with a bunch of other raving yahoo's !!??? You need to carry a sign or something so we can spot you. Do you have any AC apparel off of his website so we can look for someone wearing that!!? Don't give him a helping push, no matter how badly you want to get your hands on him!!!
LaFlorecita said:Aw all that won't happen, I won't go to vuelta even though I'd love to, but I spent all money on holiday to far away, so no more money, I am a poor student after all
LaFlorecita said:I will post here what I think should be The Great One's team for Vuelta, I also posted it on velorooms so I hope I can remember:
Alberto
Jesus
Dani
Noval
Pires
Majka
Roberts
Tosatto
N Sorensen.
This is what I think/hope.
LaFlorecita said:No no no I read in Schleck thread N Sorensen wants to ride for Andy again, so no Nicki in Vuelta team, will have to think about a substitute.
