[Grassmarket 3,406]

 Eddie Dunbar wins with a classic opportunist attack out of an over-sized breakaway.

 

And Roglič shaves some more chunks from Ben O'Connor's Parmesan.

Turning into a good Tour - win today for one of the small domestic Spanish teams.

Of all days they do it on the day they announced the death of one of their founders.

Pablo Castrillo does it again and this time it's an absolutely heroic win on the inhuman Cuitu Negru  

 

Wow, what an incredible battle that was!

And he got a 20 second drafting penalty when he had that late bike change, so more to do next week. 

 

Primož Roglič docked 20 seconds for drafting behind team car on stage 15 of Vuelta a España (msn.com)

Crash for Van Aert on a wet descent and that's it for one of the main guys who kept this Vuelta entertaining.

Roglič off on his big solo attack with 4.5km to go.
