Oh I just LOVE Vino!!! He just put in a HUGE attack after the last climb and is now leading the Vuelta!!! (As cyclingnews' live coverage said: "Holy fiery Kaszakhstanis Batman, that was a massive attack.")

How much more exciting would the Tour have been with him in it? (Not to say it wasn't exciting enough). I just love his style. A friend I trained with for Death Ride last year and I used to try to do Vino impressions when we rode. His whole schtick is "When I feel good, I attack. When I feel bad, I attack." And I love that he's a muscle-y little dude, not some waify pure climber.

While I do like Valverde, I do hope Vino holds his lead.
