Wet and Cold V-6
Up until today, the weather story of the Vuelta has been how hot it was (not that heat is big news for the summer in Spain). But today the peloton, and this breakaway, faced bitter cold and trenching rains. A large group got away on the flats before the two steep climbs that marked the end of the day. Some of those that you can see in this painting are, Sander Armee (Lotto Soudal), Antonio Pedrero (Movistar), Matej Mohoric (UAE-Emirates), Lennard Hofstede (Sun Web) and in the back ground passing of his soaked raincoat, Giovanni Visconte (Bahrain-Merida). It was going to be a hard day in the cold that many would have trouble adjusting to after so many hot, hot days.
