I hear it's been really good, but haven't had time to watch more than about 2mins!
Going to try and catch up this week from PVR.

Another crash today. Quintana broke shoulder blade. He's out!

Re: Vuelta a Espana
Finally caught up to the latest coverage last night. WOW. What a race!!!
This might be one of the most entertaining grand tours I've ever watched.
Was bummed for the guys who got a bit heated and started fighting and then kicked out... but the rules are pretty clear on that in cycling.
I can't imagine what my emotional state would be when exhausted from 15 stages of racing...

Re: Vuelta a Espana
Agreed, it's been awesome. Nice to have a bunch of guys still within a shout, too.
Love watching the competing styles - Contador with his attack-attack-attack and try to bury everyone when they try stay with him, vs Froome and his steady pace. A few times Froome has been dropped, then steadily plodded right back up in better shape than the guys killing each other with attacks. Cool stuff.
A shame Quintana went out though, he was looking sharp. And I love when a team has two guys fighting against each other, always fun.

Roid rage coupled with electric motor envy. Not a good mix.
