Iban brilliant

Iban rode surprisingly well in the Giro today. The peloton encountered the first summit-finish, and Iban came in only 34 seconds adrift. Yesterday I predicted that he would come in 8:34 from the winner, so I guess he`s in better shape than I thought he would be so early on. Iban could be seen several times riding close to the front, and in the end grabbed a moral-boosting 32nd spot. If it`s true what Iban has been saying the last days, about his need for more racing before getting competitive, we have something to look forward to the coming weeks...
