Race for the pink


The Giro D'Italia has started over 6 days ago, and things are heating up. If you need your daily Giro click here to watch. You will have t get up early like the Tour to watch.

Ivan Basso is back on the Cycling tour after serving a 17 month ban in The OperaciĆ³n Puerto doping case. Basso has signed a two-year contract with Liquigas and is back this year.

Just take a look at the A team bus. It's sweet ! Riders spend alot of time just getting to start lines and they need a comfy place to chill and take care of themselves The Liquigas bus comes equipped for all necessary stuff.


MOVIE TIME
The back of the bus has a cushy place to perch, with a good view of a TV (the bus has satellite TV so team support can watch stages while heading from the start line to the finish), and naturally a DVR, PS3.

COKE, ANYONE ?
There are plenty of refreshments on the team bus; and opposite this door is the door to the team showers, where there are three sets of showerheads and drains so the team can wash up quickly on the way to the hotel and a subsequent rubdown.

No starbuck here
Italy (not Starbucks) invented espresso. And since this is a mostly Italian squad the bus MUST have an espresso machine. A coffee company is also one of the team’s sponsors. Naturally
