Pictures from pro bike race today in VA

Went to the CSC Invitational today in VA. Considering the Giro is going on in Italy right now there was only one big name in the race and that was Magnus Backsted. He's also a pretty big guy for a bike racer. The winner was an Italian named Damiani.
It was a beautiful day to sit and watch these guys spin past at 30 MPH.

Damiani and Magnus in an early break

Peloton going around the curve. The leaders lapped the main peloton and here Magus is in the thick of things

The head of the peloton

Saw one crash on a curve but luckily no one was hurt

An international caste of winners. Italian, Canadian, Belgian, American and a Cuban.
