Vuelta's Valencia stage start times
Vuelta a España start times for Valencia time trial: Ruiz to Greipel
The Vuelta a España overall classification will change in today's 30-kilometre time trail in Valencia, Spain.
Spaniard José Ruiz (Andalucía-Cajasur) will be the first of 192 riders to start the stage at 13:24. Race leader André Greipel (Columbia-HTC) will start his ride to defend the leader's gold jersey, at 17:04.
Germany's Greipel will see his gold jersey pass to one of the contenders for the overall classification. Today's stage, and the next two in the mountains, will directly affect the final overall classification.
The Vuelta started August 29 in Assen, Netherlands, and ends September 20 in Madrid.
Riders will start today's time trial at one-minute intervals. The last 30 riders, starting with USA's Tom Danielson (Garmin-Slipstream), start at two-minute intervals.
Swiss Fabian Cancellara (Saxo Bank) won the opening 4.8-kilometre time trial in Assen. He led the race for four days.
