Vuelta a España Vuelta 2025, stage 20: Robledo de Chavela - Bola del Mundo - Puerto de Navacerrada (164.8 km)

[AnotherArmChair]

Traen is one of the stories of this Vuelta

 

[RedheadDane]

Pickering still there, what a breakthrough.

Turner winning a stage.
Pickering staying with the favourites deep into the final of a hard stage.
Those late-call-uppers doing pretty well.

 

[Berniece]

Almeida waiting for the steepest section?

 

[postmanhat]

Vingo on a training ride. He'll win this easily, unless Pidcock handles the tricky surface a bit better.

 

[Peyroteo94]

No way he's getting ~40 seconds in the last 11-12 mins or so, pretty sure that Almeida doesn't have it

I don't think so. He is really waiting IMO.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Window is gone I think, he needs to have attacked by now

 

[Rou]

Typical Almeida.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Oh, that's not good for Almeida. Can't keep up with Jay Vine.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Vine dropping Almeida

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Lepatron hangin on by a thread.

 

[RobertCrawley]

The road surface looks bumpy and no fun on this horrible steep climb.

 

[burning]

It's basically a flat or bust for Almeida imo

 

[Berniece]

Pidcock is going to break

 

[Heston]

GC Kuss might win the stage

 

[Rou]

HINDLEY!

 

[noob]

Not unexpedted

 

[Rou]

WEAK SAUSE ALMEIDA! Hindley shows him how's it done.

 

[Peyroteo94]

The Vuelta is over

 

[perico]

You aren’t going to break Jonas by riding tempo.

Problem is that there isn’t much difference in acceleration between Almeida’s attacks and riding tempo.

 

[RobertCrawley]

Jonas goes around Joao!

 

[Rou]

Jonas nose breathing.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Come on Tom

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pidcock fighting with the bike, there are some slightly flatter sections where he can get some respite but not much

 

[Salvarani]

Just hard to create gaps here

 

[Sciatic]

Cmon Vingegaard, give us at least one attack so we can see what that looks like.
