Giro 2011 stage 19

Today's Giro stage starts in the town of Bergamo just east of Milan. I got a chance to see cycling's superstars plus a Team Movistar Pinarello was on hand equipped with Campagnolo's yet to be released electronic groupset. But first a disclaimer. As I'm travelling and relatively new to posting while away, most photos and videos are from my camera retaken on my android phone so I can post to Cyclespokes. [UPDATE: have reuploaded original photos now] Next time I shall be prepared






Early photos from a cyclingnews story mentioned the size of the battery unit on Campag's group but seeing in real life reaffirms that view.

Even the map placeholder is a Pinarello!

One final word for those diehard roadies that insist on only gels for nutrition. Spot what Dave Millar packs in his jersey pockets. No it ain't a yellow cucumber.

Ciao!
