Bicycle Racing

Do they ever take bicycle racing seriously! One race of the 'Giro d' Italia' was held in Sorrento while I was there. I went to Napoli to avoid the crowd. But I guess it was my fate.

Yesterday, the finish line for this (I think) 130 km stage of the race was 350 meters from my camp. I thought I might as well walk out, join the throng, and snap a picture. Here's the winner, and then the peloton, if that's what they call this gaggle struggling to catch up.
