Stage 12 of the Vuelta passed through Tabernas (23km from the stage start) on its way from Almeria to Alto de Velefique (179km) on 11th September 2009. If you watch closely, you can see the eventual winner, Alejandro Valverde, cycle by wearing the gold jersey. The roads were only closed about 15 minutes before the peloton arrived, and were reopened as soon as the last of the support vehicles had passed.
