The UCI pro teams train effectively on bike trainer because they have to race for 21 days with 2 rest days in between. In the three week long grueling race, the riders will be tested on their biking skills as well as recovery skills. Mountain finishes are the highlights of Vuelta a Espana and in 2015, the riders have to complete all the nine mountain top finishes in the first two weeks. The final week features a long time trial on stage 17 in Burgos. The specialty of the 2015 route is that the summit finishes of the 2015 Vuelta a Espana have not been tackled in previous races, which means that the terrain will be very new even for those returning to the race.
