Oops. I already checked it on PCS.

You always have 1/2 riders you are really surprised with they are riding for a new team. And it's already august. :eek: ;)
 
Tomorrow is the queen stage, the mythical climb to Neila.

Contador could joinn his name to other great cyclist has wonn here, annd as well he could joinn other big names wonthe overall.

it is true there is not other big names here this year, as Quintana, Purito,...but simon Yates despite his crash the forst day is in good shape and he showed in dauohine ad le Tour he is as strong as Contador, at least for a week.

Scarponi was second last year and he has a good feeling with Burgos.

But there are a lot of names for this hard but not long climb as: Pozzovivo, Samuel Sanchez (he won already here) Bambrilla, Firsanov, David de la Cruz, Cataldo, Ruben Fernandez, Gorka Izaguirre, David Arroyo, Peio Bilbao, Visconti, Kennnaugh, Verona, David Arroyo, Kudus, Igor Anton,

Yes, Adam, sorry
 
Disappointing parcours this year for sure, this is the kind of race that really ought to be garnering more interest than it is, but they've made it so it's Neila and nothing else this year. Even if Neila invariably is a great stage, it's still frustrating that they've not had a bit more variety.

All the stages has showed quite well all the big heritage we have i Burbgos, The secod day was a group of 50, but of course tey could have doe a much hard a selective stage there. Today was a fial is a coble climb ad there was echelos.. lot of people suffered i the falt, The wid is what make hard Vuelta a Burgos. And there was a TTT with climb, cobbles, flat,...with the Castle, Huelgas Monastery, Cathedral,..the hearth of Castilla.
