Some Spanish-Italian-English translation work going on...share this photo
“To win the time trial has great significance for me personally,, for my team, and for Colombia, and to take the Maglia Rosa as well is a nice surprise. There’s a long way to go, of course, and the real mountains are still ahead of us, but today is important. I came here twice to look at the route. I worked hard with [bike manufacturer] Specialized and went to the wind tunnel in California. I rode well in the time trial at the Tour of Romandie. During the race today, I was given repeated updates on Cadel Evans’ times, and I think it made a difference. I wanted to do well today, but I didn’t expect to win and take the jersey.”share this photo
