The battle of La Vuelta continues in the Galician lands this Wednesday, with a mid-mountain stage, 166.5 kilometers, starting and ending in Cortijo Technological Campus, in Padrón (A Coruña).
A stage with a certain similarity to yesterday, but with less rigidity at the beginning of the stage, due to the size of the ports, which does not mean that in the next moment of truth it will also be complicated for the runners. .
Four ports were up and down this Wednesday, in a day of constant ups and downs. Four levels, two of the third and two of the second, with a double step on Port of Aguasantas and the last of them, Cruxeiras (3rd) 8 kilometers from the finish line, creating a crazy scenario until the finish line is reached.
The decisive moment
The latter is a third-category pass, but it is very difficult, as it is a 2.9 kilometer climb with an average slope of 8.9%. A challenge that can choke more than one cyclist and where the rest of the day can be made or broken, which again can be made up of important cyclists in the peloton, waiting for the attitude of the leader, the Australian Ben O’Connor, who starts the day knowing what awaits him at the end.
“I think tomorrow (today) the finish will be a bit more decisive. The final pass will be difficult, so it will be interesting.” The show was served.
