From the 5th to the 9th of August the peloton will tackle the
Vuelta a Burgos. The Spanish race is the single most important race in preparation for the Vuelta a Espana and features opportunities for the climbers, time-trialists and sprinters alike. We
preview stage 2.
Stage 2 of the race is indeed a profile that looks exactly like a traditional Burgos stage. On paper this is a day to be contested by the sprinters who can climb, who will be here preparing for the Vuelta. It is a day with six categorized climbs, none too hard, and with a small hilltop finish in Ojo Guareña that should be very interesting and have everyone on the limit.
