A touch ahead of myself, I know, but I CAN’T WAIT for this year’s Vuelta! I know that TdF & GdI were both up a couple of weeks prior to the big start; any idea when this one will be up and running?

I need to do my obsessive stage-by-stage plan (that will be binned by stage 5), so want to know rider values :B

Also I suppose there’s a ‘Pick Three Spaniards’ game to be run 8}

Thanks for setting such a reasonable deadline for Stage 1… It means I can sleep in tommorow, have some coffee and relax while I try to figure out again at the last minute how to tame this beast! I really appreciate it… 🙂

Yeah, I’m confused by the bookies a bit. Almost certain there is no young rider classification in the Vuelta, they have that weird combination jersey.

The bookies are offering young rider, just not Each Way.

So I take it there aren’t any young rider points in this competition then? Says there are on the scoring info pages.

Probably because there is no “best young rider classification” at the Vuelta.

The 4 jerseys are GC, Points, KOM and combination classification.

Im remembering the TDF and how his Nibs won a hilly stage early doors and then held yellow nearly every day. Valverde might be a good early pick perhaps.
