Vuelta a Espaņa & Tour of Britain 2015
I must say I was a bit disappointed not to see an ITT this year for a bit of decisiveness. Agree with you about stage 6; perhaps fatigue will have set in given the smaller team sizes, though in that case it could even be won by someone in a break on the long stage 7. Hartside has a summit finish for stage 5, of course, 8km at 5%, but unlike a classic British climb it's a pretty constant gradient rather than having odd sections of double-digits.
Agree with you about Cav. And I think even when everything goes right, a fully fit Kittel would still beat him these days.
