It will be interesting to see if Bora pulls since Rogla feels good or they just want to keep him out of trouble.

I really like la vuelta! Something so cool about all these tiny cities and villages! The ramps the dry mountains, the colour palette so dry, textured and toasted, always whipped with red burnt afternoon light.

Maybe he is just afraid of going the wrong way.

Really curious if wheel sucking correlates with G (factor)

I'm fairly new to watching cycling and was intrigued by Campanaerts' sprint yesterday followed by Wout's win. Campanaerts talked about difficulty in his contract negotiations with Lotto during TDF press and is going to Visma. So what do cyclists who are about to switch do? Do they start collaborating with future teammates? Do they go for wins? Do they do anything spiteful? Curious!

Not sure whether riders would get the runs from popsicles during a race, but seeing as the scenery looks so scorching hot I'm going to have one.

All of the above, or none of the above. Or they just don't do anything and DNF every race.

They should have water hoses in the feed zones and spray them all from atop. Loved seeing all those closeups <3

This is La Vuelta: Scorching heat and nothing happening at all until the last climb - just as it should be! Today will be important, stage 8 less so, but stage 9 is the big one overshadowing everything in this first week. This is the stage of does and don't
