13k TTT under the lights in Sevilla. What an absolute blast to watch, I'm not a big fan of the ITT, ...now TTT that is a different story. It really showcases cycling as a team sport. Watching these teams drilling a paceline is a thing of beauty.
HTC needless to say... Put it down, and picked up the win and placed Cavo in the red leaders jersey. Nicely done. The podium presentation was around midnight local time. Ouch. It's going to be a short night.
I'm so stoked to have a grand Tour starting. I still cannot get over how cool stage 1 was. If you did not get to see it try and watch some highlights on youtube, or cyclingfans. It is a must see in my book. More homework people, chop chop.
