The First Days
The Giro is going very well so far. I might be minutes down on the general classification, but I am safe and healthy! Crashes have been the norm for the first few days. Crazy courses, with turns every hundred meters and traffic islands as far as the eye can see. With so many Italians racing here, and their lack of experience with races in the north of Europe, the races have been very nervous and dangerous.
Now we are in Italy! Tomorrow will see each team trying to be the best against the clock in the team time trial. The course is dead straight and about as flat as possible. Speeds will never drop below the 50kph (30mph) mark, and that should make for a fast and exciting stage. Here are some pictures of the course, which we previewed this morning.
