Summary

Join Daniel Friebe and Richard Abraham as they take us on a journey from Lisbon, venue for this year’s ‘Gran Salida’, to the Vuelta’s traditional finish-line in Madrid.

There’ll be analysis, interviews, wistful gazing and tepid takes from on the ground, in the thick of the action - and a return for both popular and unpopular features from previous editions!
