This is what awaits the guys in stage 15 of the Vuelta tomorrow: hardcore and brutal climbing. Angliru is going to cause a major amount of hurt.

Heinrich Haussler blogged that already this Grand Tour was the hardest he had ever done. Tomorrow is going to be a tough day for all, GC contenders and gruppetto residents alike.
