If he climbs tomorrow like he did today, he could easily win a stage. Although Quintana is a burden

I think hes gonna ride San sebastian.Gigs_98 said:Does anyone know what his plans for this season after rio are? He could even ride his third gt this year and go stage hunting at the Vuelta. Completely concentrating on classics now is of course also possible (Canadian Classics and italian fall classics maybe also oest france). I guess he won't ride san Sebastian though because of rio

Red Rick said:I've seen rumours that both say he's skipping it or riding it. I think it's most likely he'll skip. CSS + Olympics, then Canadian races, WCRR, Italian semi classics + Lombardia should be good. Some very good races to do without piling up race day's like a madman

A Vuelta without Purito and Bala is just a **** edition. It just can't be!

What? When have any of these two delivered excitement in the Vuelta? Two very conservative riders that wait for the final km in uphill finishes.
At least Rodriguez went out with a bang on his last TdF mountain stage by attacking early and gaining 3 places in GC.

They add nothing of value to the race. If they weren't there, someone else would just place an attack a km from the line. Big deal.
