May 19: Weekend Update from the Giro d'Italia

Our first day to see the Giro in person, we traveled across Tuscany towards the border with Romagna and Marche, and settled in a little town, San Sisto, to enjoy the race with the locals.

The town was all decorated in pink in honor of the Maglia Rosa
Townspeople young and old cheered as the peloton raced past
Viva Il Giro!

John's new buddy Gianfranco invited us back to San Sisto for the annual Fungi Festival in the fall
All serious, watching the finish of the race on TV in a local pub
Back at the hotel, we ran into one of the owners of Wilier Triestina
