Vuelta 2013 route

[Libertine Seguros]

So, two out of three likelihoods that they go over Peyresourde. The kind of thing I absolutely do NOT want out of a Vuelta route that goes into France.

Things I don't want to see from the Vuelta in France:
Aspin
Peyresourde
Marie-Blanque
Bonascre
Luz Ardiden
But more than anything else, I never, ever, ever want to see the Tourmalet.

What's wrong with that?
It's a good climb and it's not used too often in teh Tour

 

[Libertine Seguros]

The only way to get there is by a long stretch of valley road, creating a badly designed one-climb stage in classic Unipublic style, or going over the Tourmalet.

I also forgot the Aubisque, which I also never want to see in the Vuelta, and could live without ever seeing again in the Tour either.

 

[Descender]

Cantó + Bonaigua + Portillon + Peyragudes would be my bet right now.

 

[Grzdylu]

Cantó + Bonaigua + Portillon + Superbagneres i think.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

So the only person who can climb in the current peloton is Contador. You exceed yourself sometimes Ryo.

mo there are far more, only they haven't won a gt yet. except cobo and perhaps basso

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

...who was beaten consistently in all climbs by the same guy

what?

Im actually quite interested who you think are 'climbers' outside of the colombians and those previously mentioned

The Schlecks, Pozzovivo, Sella (!), Anton for example?

 

[gregrowlerson]

But more than anything else, I never, ever, ever want to see the Tourmalet.

We can only hope that they move in the direction of the TDF then and give us a stage with a double Tourmalet serving

The stages in the Pyrenees are:
Baga- Gallina/Canolich with Ordino and Comella

Andorra-Peyragudes with Canto-Bonaigua-Portillon-Peyresourde/Peyragudes
or with Canto-Bonaigua-Bales-Peyresourde/Peyragudes

They are not bad Pyrenean stages.
If the stage in Peña Cabarga is good we can have a good Vuelta, with a thing I don´t like , the lack of time trial kilometres

Hoy Mas Deporte de @elperiodico_cas y @yosugarai en @marca informan que PEYRAGUDES sera final de la Vuelta 2013 saliendo de Andorra


Two newspaper believe this final for the andorran stage.

About the presentation is in 2 hours and a half at Teledeporte (12:00 spanish time)

Don't know if it's geo-restricted

AS prediction

 

[Red Rick]

Why isn't croix de lipodére an idea, it perfectly fits Unipulic's desire for too steep mountains

Hopefully UniPurito wins and we can have again ITTs in spain

Does anyone know how long the tt is?

 

[Netserk]

Does anyone know how long the tt is?

I would guess between 30 and 40 km, but that is pure speculation

It is

EDIT: Solution

 

[apmfbs]

There are news saying the TTT will have 27 kilometres more or less and the ITT more than 35 kilometres.

 

[Descender]

It is

EDIT: Solution

Not working.

 

[Netserk]

Not working.

For me it's working (in the sense of giving a Spanish IP)

Though I can't see any video yet....

 

[Descender]

Peyragudes stage is going to be 232 kms long and will include Port d'Envalira.
