Before the start, Nathan Haas has someone to care for.

As does Cadel Evans

Racing immortal Greg Lemond was there as well.

The pack splits as it passes through Rotonda

The day's long, but ultimately unsuccessful break, Campbell Flakemore, Thomas de Gendt and Cameron Meyer. Flakemore would crash out after the stage's end.

The countryside may be pretty, but the day's rolling roads must have been a lot of work to get over at racing speed.
