FWIW, I'd go the other way. Add high quality dirt roads and no race radios for me. But, that's me. I don't want to reignite either topic.

La Vuelta is not even close to that. IMO.Tonton said:The Giro and the Vuelta have re-invented themselves and closed the ever-growing gap with the TdF that existed since roughly the mid-80s. Even if it meant crazy insane courses with MTF every other day. I think that ASO is taking notice, and including the cobblestone stage may have been inspired by that. It will surely shuffle the deck of cards. I'd like more nervous stages that make it hard for one team to control the race. And for crying out loud, pave the Col du Jandri...
