It seems, people have been still expecting me to ride the Vuelta. But the Vuelta boycott lives on! Down with the Vuelta! (not down with FL...). Hence, I also refuse to write anything in any Vuelta race chat, not matter how much time I have or not (which i currently don't have much, although I have exactly the same amount as everybody else, approx. 24h every day. But I guess it's more about priorities...).

So you want a favo check? Eat it! (EAT, ha, Takashi would be proud)

Level of I don't give a fuck:

Vuelta 08h: 5 of 5 stars
Vuelta 14h: 4 of 5 stars (it's the afternoon after all, or well, after noon. dad joke for Falcor CC, you're welcome).
...

I don't even care enough to make a full list. pffff...

So you care about the Vuelta? Better go comment in the fairplay section! Do it!

Yours is not a real, true Vuelta boycott like mine was! You just don't ride it! I, did a real boycott, an admirable enterprise, revenge for Leso cancelling the 2009 Vuelta at very short notice for the afternoon! Scandalous. But the Donkey then didn't give the Vuelta the honor of his participation for 10 years. 11 even! After that I reluctantly rejoined, ok boycotted 24 again. It's cheapens the value of my true boycott if you call your non-riding boycott!

Pah, you gave in and participate again! I stay true to the cause! Viva Vuelta Virginity! VVV vorever!

And if you would remember correctly, my outspoken Vuelta boycott began exactly with this non-afternoon Vuelta edition too.

Btw., wanted to look it up when that was and quote myself, but the search result in the RSF races section I very much like:

The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: vuelta.

Even the C4F forum boycotts the Vuelta!

Was on the old forum anyway, this one started in 2010. Ok, calendar coordination for the 2010 Vuelta might bring some results...

But ok, since I have no reason to disbelieve your claim, I accept that you are indeed truly boycotting the Vuelta! Your commitment to the cause is indeed superior to mine. Some people might suspect it's only because you have no chance in hell to ever win it, while of course at some point I will, but rest assured, I'm not one of them. I now realize that your righteous and steadfast boycott of the Vuelta is admirable. And nothing else! Viva FL!

Who?

Andrade the only sprinter winning a stage in every GT. Who is this Alex?

Gipfelstuermer and Falcor CC i meant, particularly. But it seems you have an Alex fetish . And I am sorry for Andrade that his palmares is mutilated with Vuelta entries!

Me personally I don't miss having Alex in the GT at all! He won too much anyway. At least I could beat the Fürst sometimes...

Boycotting the Vuelta for a few years? Pff, that's child's play. I have boycotted all Grand Tours since starting Cycling4Freaks!

Ever since the Tour Enno has been acting up saying he should be the only leader on the team. I think he picked that mentality up from riding near Team FL too much there, with their toxic co-leader duo... Behavior like that is not condoned in our team though! Even if he threatens early retirement after Lombardia!

Exactly the behavior Enno has picked up on, riders manipulating their managers! I will not stand for it!

Sure, in the Vuelta boycott thread. You guys that ride the Vuelta are only tolerated here. But we're not evil after all (according to r TAKA's list).

When I tried to do it, I won the Giro with Volta

Changes were needed to avoid the temptation of trying to go 3/3.

Down with the vuelta! We love university!

I wonder why more teams ride the Vuelta than the Andes? It would be disqualified from the Dec Tour competition for being unbalanced.

It won't even fulfill the number of days/stages criteria tz

Do we need a Andes boycott thread?

WE LOVE ANDES! Unless Taka makes the finish in brazil then we can boycott

start the Andes boycott thread!
