It's taken a few stages to get him there, but at last Cav's got a win.

Coverage isn't as good for la vuelta, you can always check steephill.tv they normally have links.

Here's the last kilometer. Pretty convincing.

Highlights are on Eurosport 2 in the evenings. Times vary, but it's usually sometime between 6:30 and 8:00.
Watched last nights highlights ... strange finish - Goss and Cav just seemed to break away, and they looked round and realised they were clear. Cav said in the interview after that he told Goss to take the win, but Goss pulled off and let Cav thru'.

It was guaranteed, I took him out of my Fantasy Vuelta team a few days ago

Yes, I saw that - pretty classy gesture from Cav and a long way from the "animal" some people try to make him out to be. He seems to have a genuine love for his team mates.

Anyone wanting to watch the Vuelta live, this is a pretty good link. Choose between Spanish and English.

And bunny-hopping over the line today! 

 

[iAmiAdam]

I hope some press got a pic of that bunny hop.

 

[raindog]

Does the win count if you cross the line in mid-air?

 

[ChristinaJL]

My lad now wants to practise bunny hops tomorrow on his bmx!!

Hello new PC background.

I think i am suffering from a very small amount of man love for that guy at the moment. Although I hope that what Sky are trying to do (might take them a while based on this season, but that's for another day) I hope he stays put with HTC/THR/Columbia
