    Not really.
    You might want to add "Vuelta" (before) and "Spoiler" (after) into the thread title. A Froome attack/him falling off, for those that can't see it live, might be excruciatingly frustrating...

    Matt Stephens and Kirby are already talking about the Froome situation whilst missing fabulous helicopter shots of the beautiful scenery (snowy mountains in the background of barren vineyards, etc) and saying how they don’t want the Froome thing to detract from the race...
    MS then muttered those immortal words... “I, for one...”

    Just taking a look at the sprint on el youtube. That's slightly embarrassing...
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    Just the sort of sprint you get in a shoot small race.

    Nothing lightweight about Gronewegen's win in Algarve.
    Mano a mano with Demare and the rest gapped.

    Not the decisive stage it was touted to be.
    Going to be won in the ITT.

    Froome rides into a diplomatic 7th.

    That was one tough finish.
    Tim Wellens wins the stage, while Chris Froome punctures with 4kms to go.
    Bad omens. :lol:

    Really enjoyed that race - also proves what a great advertisement cycling is for an area. We've booked a week in Cadiz in April as a result. It looks fab and I'm bringing a bike....yippee !!!
