It will be exciting, the Giro.
   Vanagon content:  I will be searching the net for some coverage as soon
as I drive back home, with my bikes in my Vanagon, from my Saturday morning
club training ride.
 My bikes and gear always reside in the vanagon..that way when I have an
'away race' I go the evening before and find a  quiet spot..eat a big pasta
dinner and get a great night's sleep without having to carry crap in and out
of motel rooms or worry about whether I've forgotten anything.  And when the
race is done I reach into the fridge for a frosty...gatoraid...and take a
little snooze before hitting the road for home.
  The weird thing is...my bikes cost about twice what the vanagon did...
  I predict Levi Leipheimer (from Santa Rosa, Ca) will win.
  Now back to your regular schedualed program....
