First Mountain Top showdown
There was a party atmosphere at the start in Caltanissetta but only amongst the residents who were happy to have a major sporting event start in their central Sicilian town. The riders and their directeur sportif were in a far more serious mood as the minutes ticked down to the start of the first mountain finish of this year's Giro d'Italia.
