Vuelta a Andalucia announces 2012 route

The Vuelta a Andalucia - SLB's hometown race - has announced their 2012 route. This race features many of the big names in the European peleton and for many of them this is the first official race of the season with UCI points up for grabs. The course, while different every year, typically uses the same routes that we do at SLB. They have not yet posted a route map, but general information can be found here:

The dates fall on Camp 2 this year, so if you are attending the second camp of SLB, then we will likely get to see one stage of this late winter classic.

Vuelta a Espana to climb Zafarraya Tomorrow

The peleton of the Vuelta a Espana, celebrating its 75th year will be climbing the famed Zafarraya climb tomorrow on Stage 4. This approximate 20km climb goes from sea level near Torre del Mar, a northern suburb of Malaga, all the way up to 1200m. The bulk of the climb is between the 5th and 15th kilometer and features a lunar landscape at the top. There are multiple switchbacks and excellent pavement throughout. This climb is often used by our Strong Like Bull winter training camp as it features a steady gradient with satisfying views of the ocean and greater Malaga valley during the ascent.
