Yesterday was our first day at the giro, we scaled Monte Zolcolan, 10 km climb with an average of 14.9% grade, with a section at 23% ! I did it in 1:25 the pro would book it in 40 min. This is supposed to be one of the hardest climb in cycling. Let me tell you my legs sure felt it. There was over 100,000 person watching and it was actually neat to see the riders go by with 2 km to go. Today we did a very light ride as tomorrow. We are riding to San Pelligrino, which will be around 140 km. The saying what goes up must come down doesn't really apply here in this part of Italy it's more what goes up must go higher and steeper. Wifi os really limited here hence why no photos. The weather is very warm with 31 degree today. Ciao for now.

Carpe Diem
