More comments from the race.

Nevertheless, my bet is on Cárdenas. He is in great shape and he is very experienced (and he lives in my home town).

Me very happy . And Sevilla out of the podium . And Báez second . I wanted to see Pedraza up there, but well, he did nice anyways.

I thought Cardenas was the Colombian champ but it looks like Henao is wearing it?

Henao was wearing the leaders jersey. Cardenas is the road champ, not itt.

Leader's jersey of the Vuelta a Colombia - it was red until last year with the Pilsen sponsorship but is now a giant Colombian flag.

Aah, that explains it. I guess the lack of TT bikes made me forget it was a TT.

Thanks. I must admit the numbers don't mean a lot to me - is that good for a pro? With regards to his build, would you say he is similar to Uran? As Uran is Colombian, I get the feeling he is expected to excel in the high mountains, when he has actually shown the most potential in hilly classics.

henao is build like cunego, but more muscled, even his legs. he is incredibly explosive but by riding heavy gears is starting to blow in the steeper climbs this year. hope sky can change that

Who's this Osorio dude? How old is he?

he is like the colombian version of indurain(I hope) he is 187 and 79 kg, so big guy and only 22 and rapidly improving, especially his climbing

Cardenas amazes me but Henao will eat him in the final itt imo.

So a 39 years old guy outbet all the others, even the dopers of Gobernacion Antigua, according to what Colombian es Pasion DS said.
Sounds like a colombian version of Horner (at least for last ToC).

the colombian teams all are paranoia, they all accuse each other of cheating and doping. I wouldn't take too much of it serious especially at how badly antioquia have failed at this vuelta colombia

cardenas perhaps back in his 2003 shape
