Pavé/Laekhouse Colle delle Finestre Contest
We had so much fun with our Cima Coppi contest that we decided to have another! The challenge: pick the winner of the climb over the Colle delle Finestre.

As we’ve mentioned before, one of the interesting situations about Geox-TMC’s sponsorship deal is they’re able to use products across the ASI product line, including opting for the distinctive Kestrel 4000 over the Fuji D-6. Both Carlos Sastre and Denis Menchov hit the wind tunnel to fine tune their time trial positions on their Kestrels, … Continue reading
