Velominati Super Prestige: Giro d’Italia 2016

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare for the Giro, 2016, starting in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands and finishing in Torino, Italy. Here is a provisional start list. The riders make the race so it should be fantastic racing, a race up the whole of the country, for three weeks, what’s not to love? The Giro usually has a crazy stage and we are unsure what this year’s edition holds in that category, maybe more racing at night, or on dirt, bring it on. The Shark, Landa, Malmerde, Uran Uran, even Red Ryder, and more, each have a decent shot at the over all.

We all know the drill, this race starts on Friday so keep your delgado monkey on a tight leash. Consult your personal oracles; there are bike frames, carbon wheels, V-kit and more for the winners of the season-long overall VSP. Further details can be found on the VSP page. Bon chance.

    In other news…the VMH gave birth to our first baby boy last Thursday night. Let the breeding and blimping commence!

    22:29 EST on 4-28-16 and our house number is 824. 8 pounds, 53 cms long. Pretty crazy to have a little guy who needs to be fed every 3 hours. Life just got a whole lot more interesting. And busy.

    Time to get yourself a set of decent lights for night rides.    Its the only thing that gets me on the bike regularly having two little humans in the house.  Congrats and let the games begin !
