From the 26th to 28th of April we've got the Vuelta a Asturias on the menu. It is a race frequently used by a few Giro d'Italia contenders, but regardless of their presence, the race always delivers in the mountains. We take a look at it's profiles.

Stage 1: Oviedo - Pola de Lena, 179.2 kilometers
The opening stage of the race features climbing from start to finish and is a very difficult challenge. From Oviedo to Pola de Lena the riders find steep and also some rather long ascents where differences can be made. The last of which is 8.3 kilometers long at almost 6% and only a steep downhill finish is left after it's summit.
Stage 2: Ribera de Arriba - Ribadesella, 200.1 kilometers
Perhaps the day best suited to the sprinters or a breakaway, the second stage features 200 kilometers of racing. It features quite a bit of climbing, but the final 35 kilometers are pan-flat and it is expected that a group will battle it out in a sprint at the end of the day.
Stage 3: Benia de Onís - Oviedo, 144 kilometers
Perhaps the queen stage, the riders finally return to Oviedo in the final day of racing and although most of the day is flat, there is a very explosive finale.
Two climbs, one of 3.1 kilometers at 9.3% and another of 1Km at 8.9% make the finally very explosive and opens up he possibility for decisive gaps to be opened.

- i don’t know nearly as much about bruyneel or hincapie as most of us do about lance, but we judge people by the company they keep. i hand no idea what psychological problems the other two have, but there’s gotta be something pretty severely wrong with them if they continue to choose to be close to armstrong.OCexile26-12-2024
- Ayuso and Rodriguez are only 22 and 23. Don't pressure it as they're still so sooo young.
James2631826-12-2024 - Not sure that can be true, in that USA Cycling is part of the UCI.acem8226-12-2024
- Oh, and yes: I am no psychiatrist/psychologist, but Bruyneel and Texas Turd are both sociopaths. It goes well beyond "protect my world and anyone would" that is the usual zeitgeist of their bullshit. No normal person has Bob Roll go at Greg Lemond with an audio recording device at Ron Keifel's bike shop...for example.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- Funnier: this website keeps giving credo to their ramblings. In this case, why in any possible way would Boonen want to create a fantasy world to attach himself to these two clowns when more likely he would want to forget he was even there? Laughable.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- A sociopath is an informal term used to describe someone with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), a mental health condition characterized by a chronic pattern of disregard for social norms, laws, and the rights and feelings of others.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- Rowe spent his whole career on one team being nothing more than a thug for Skyneos. I have no idea why another team would want import this type of person into their program.Sweep26-12-2024
- “CyclingUpToDate would like to extend it's condolences to family and friends of Pascal.” Paging a copy editor….menk26-12-2024
- yeah, that’s a more fair assessment. “reaching mathieu’s level” doesn’t mean you’re planning to replicate his whole career. the former IS doable, potentially. it’s just the latter that likely is not.OCexile25-12-2024
- That’s not entirely true. Every person follows their own development path and peaks differently. Remco and Primoz had hardly started cycling before elite level. Jonas was pretty much under the radzr until he unexpectedly had to take over responsibility at JV. Some guys only get real good in their thirties others have peaked mid-twenties. You can’t tell in advance how and upto what level they will progress, obviously his career might not have MVDPs length but nothing says he could not end up doing a few seasons at his level.Mistermaumau25-12-2024
