Hello everybody.
New here, but a life-long cycling fan, although I do not ride a road bike. I love mountain biking.

Movistar is fighting for stages, which is sad, as they are unable to fight for the GC. This is not a team, but a band.
Of which I am happy about, because of the long history of bad economic and political facts linked to them and its previous companies.

What have they done with the real Nairoman?
Valverde looks very solid. Congrats.
Superman good despite unfavourable terrain.
Roglic according to expectations.
Aru coming back.
MS duo will be interesting to watch.

Don Alejandro = imperious. Superb work by Nairito.

at this point, this is Roglic's vuelta to lose...

Great ride by all of the Big Four. Roglic looking the most impressive for me right now.
Agree with your post but I find it almost sad that those four riders are the big four of this race. I just really cannot get excited about this gc field

Perfect plan executed by Movistar for once. Quintana proving people wrong, He got the raw stick at the tour., obvoiusly he and Valverde has sorted it out.

Who else could really make it exciting though?
Thomas LOL Carapez (one off?) time trialling boredom Dumolin?

GC riding is pretty piss poor in 2019. Semi average riders are winning GTs

I think the climb today is a little bit too hard and long to be categorized as non-Lopez terrain. He should be worried that Roglic beat him.

About Nieve and Chaves, I suppose it will be interesting how they change plans for this Vuelta, because surely their below-par performances today have not made them more interesting in the GC battle, quite the contrary.
