How The Race Was Won – Clasica San Sebastian 2013

Posted on 29 July 20134 July 2021 by cosmo

Does anyone call this the Climber’s Classic? Well, they shouldn’t. Sure, the length of the race and climbs take a toll, but they’re pretty tame as far as slope goes, and a clever all-rounder can get away if the favorites can’t seem to sort things out—and if the motos don’t provide too much support to the guys in orange, of course.

    I only had to watch this one twice… plus a few pauses… great job!
    Still can’t quite believe no-one has given you a job doing these.

    Thanks for putting in the overtime! My guess is there are a few moto drivers strutting around in some sweet Euskaltel schwag this week.

    Excuse my ignorance about cycling events but I was wondering why there was bad traffic and road closures on this day, now I know.

    @thomas I don’t think he talks that fast.

    Those moto riders need a reprimand. Blinking silly antics.

    I’ve watched all of your HTRWW videos many times now, and I have to say; it’s the best cycling coverage. Fullstop.

    I’d pay to see this shit ( don’t make me pay to see this shit ).

    Always the accurate story, themes and incidents of the race, always the tiny but essential aesthetically pleasing moments, always filled with relevant micro rants – and the whole punchy, amusing package can conveniently be watched in the time it takes for some deviant pornography to buffer.

    And you even find time to teach my dumb ass how sprints really work.

    Well played.
