One of the most beautiful rides of my life, but I missed my teammates, especially Brian!–needed him to pull me through. I got a two-hour headstart, and the boys still caught me on the final grade up to Pompeago, where my tired legs finally gave out after about 100km of climbing. Still, I was the first one over the GPM mountain at Vigolo Vittaro, thanks to my headstart. [ More photos]
