I was able to make it to today's Giro stage in Orvieto. Such a contrast to Parma, especially now that a rider has passed away.
Orvieto was organized differently as it was more of a summit finish than Parma. The team buses were in a different part of the city and quite a walk from where I was (700m from the finish). The atmosphere was a bit more energetic as the confines of this small city bottled up all the energy.
The pictures aren't that great but I wasn't exactly trying. Instead, I wanted to shout and scream at the riders to get their asses up the hill. So that's what I did.
Comedic relief brought to you today by Liquigas. I watched for about 20 minutes as the Liquigas bus tried to fit down a narrow road to leave Orvieto.
Angry Italian men thought they could help the situation by waving their arms frantically.
