We arrive in Vizzini. This fellow , Lorenzo, sees our bikes and stops to chat. He offers to lead us to the route and suggests where we should ride to experience part of the stage and later where best to watch the riders approach.
Once at the route, we head south opposite to travel of riders.
Some of the security!
Monterosso Almo
At this point we head back to Vizzini where we will wait for the riders to come.
More security!
Remembering Scarponi.
We are now riding in the direction of the riders. That's Vizzini up there , where will we stop to watch the riders approach through the valley
Yep thats where we are going.
Back in Vizzini.
This caravan is getting ready to take off before the riders get there.
Yep you know what this is.
Locals are into it!
Everybody dresses up
They are everywhere!
Part of the Caravan! Nice!
Its a festival before the riders come.
Weight limits were set pretty high when these balconies were built.
We have our viewing point.
Have to make sure sheep stay off the road
Our "horses"
The valley road we were just on. Waiting for the riders to come.
More security , clearly a local boy!
Here they come!
The breakaway!
