    Giro D’Italia – the round of Italy 

    Yesterday was the first stage of Giro D’Italia in Apeldoorn. It was a time trial and, as always, the first duel for the pink Jersey was an exiting one with success for the Dutch rider Tom Dumoulin from team Giant-Alpecin.

    Today, teams raced from Arnhem to Nijmegen in their best pace. The countdown to 29 May in Torino to win this classic is on!

    This is on my way to the “bevrijdingsfestival” in Utrecht.

    It always amazes me how the Dutch people enjoy cycling, at least can cycle everywhere.
