Re: Vuelta a Espana 2018 (Cat. 1, deadline on 25/8)
Ecco il mio percorso. E’ dedicato a Federico Bahamontes che quest’anno compirà 90 anni. Diverse tappe presentano traguardi o passaggi dedicati allo scalatore spagnolo, in base alle sue vittorie conseguite in terra spagnola e nelle frazioni pirenaiche del Tour (ne trovate cenno nelle descrizioni all’interno delle singole schede)
Here is my path. It is dedicated to Federico Bahamontes, who will turn 90 this year. Several stages have goals or steps dedicated to the spanish climber, based on his victories in the spanish territory and in the pyrenean fractions of the Tour (you can find them in the descriptions in the individual stages)
Il primo giorno di riposo è in Francia (dopo le tappe pirenaiche), il secondo dopo la tappa di Santiago
The first day of rest is in France (after the pyrenean stages), the second after the stage in Santiago
