Anyone check out the route for this year's Vuelta?

Sounds like it will be a much more exciting route than the TDF was. Not as much excitement without the whole Lance-Contador crap, but for TT, real mountain stages with actual mountain top finishes, etc, it sounds much better than the tdf's route!

And with Vino returning, Cadel p'd off about his tdf, Basso, the Shlecks, it should be a SUPER race!

Im certainly looking forward to having another Grand Tour - although Im only getting 15 minute highlights each day so it will be a little hard to get in to I suspect!

Enough of the big names riding to make it interesting.. and im happy not to have a Lance/Contador thing going on... makes it more exciting for me!

www.cyclingfans.com has links to live Paul and Phil coverage everyday during the Vuelta, as well as all other major races. They give oyu a choice of multiple different streaming websites to watch it on. Great website. That's what I used this July when I was in Iraq trying to get tdf coverage.

They awarded KOM points today in stage two, even though the only climb of the day was 10m. Nice to know there's a KOM summit on a grand tour somewhere in the world that I'm capable of climbing over.
