Vuelta a Espana 2005: Preview and Profile Stage 10

Monday, September 5th Stage 10: La Vall D'en Bas to Ski resort D'Ordino Arcalis ( Andorra ) 206.3 Km

The first entry into the mountains will happen in Andorra. The mountain stage is long at 200 kilometers and includes four brutal climbs. In the early part of the stage, the race will be centered on the ascents to the category 2 Coll de Canes and to the category 1 Collada de Tosses. These 2 climbs will be a launching pad for breakaways. Escapes in this kind of stages can influence the overall classification. Contenders must be vigilant.
