Giro 2007 rumours...

Man it was f*cking cold up there and i missed WBT.

Blame Mrs. WBT for that..... she doesn't like the cold.... she loves WBT hot action but hates the cold... bloody Spanish...... opps did I say that or think that ?

Nice work; I actually stayed in Brunico so went straight on the ski life to Plan de Conrones.... therefore to see a bike I would have had to walk all the way down.... the idea of doing that with a wind chill factor at -30 was absurd. The annoying thing was the very next day it was clear blue sky's !

yep it was clear blue skies that afternoon actually. And to make matters worse, I found out too latet that there was a ski lift to take fans back up from (what was thw town called where they move the finish to?). I was worried about coming back up not walking down. Of course, my brain cells were all frozen so I did even ask if there was a way to come back up.

Oh well, chalk it up to experience I guess. I was staying in Bressanone a very charming little town.

I've read there'll be a Sestrieres-Finestre-Sestrieres-Montgenevre stage! Presumably that'll be the one finishing in Briancon. Sounds good .
