Giro d’Italia, Stage 5: Back to the bike


The writer’s over at US Pro Cycling News (myself included) will be doing daily recaps of both the Giro d’Italia and the Tour of California.

Stage 5 saw the Giro get back to racing, as Fitzalan Gorman reports. Pieter Weening took the pink jersey from David Millar at the end of this stage.
