How The Race Was Won – Giro d’Italia 2013 – Stages 1-4

Posted on 13 May 20134 July 2021 by cosmo

I’ve had a pretty good run with HTRWW this spring, but last Tuesday, a few things went wrong. A perfect storm, if you will. The still-buggy result is this Lost Episode—scheduled to go live last Wednesday, offered now (along with stages 5 through 9) because it’s a rest day and you’ve got nothing to do until Tour of California this evening.

    Cosmo you have outdone yourself again. All my work colleges and now looking strangle at me as I wipe food off my screen which was placed there by me trying to hold back a laugh from a number of quips in a row.
    Again thank you for these insights and please keep it coming.

    I are liking your websiteblog with very much interest!

    Just kidding.

    Great work as always. Hope the vacation is nice. Be sure to ride Diablo if you get a chance. I did it once, but somehow I remember it being an all-day thing. Definitely did not sprint at the end.

      Careful, man—I’ve been getting overrun with spam lately. Almost flagged this post. Probably some deeper problem with the site that I’ll have to fix.

      Vacation was great—awesome group, fantastic weather and climbs. Didn’t hit Diablo (rode it back in 2010, tho) but suffered thoroughly on a host leg-breakers in Sonoma and Marin. It’s gorgeous out there.
