The Giro Comes to Jersey!

Not THAT Giro! The Giro Di Jersey. Maybe a little more "Bada Bing" than la dolche vita but it does claim to be the biggest stage race on the East Coast with 5 stages and $20,000 in prize money.

Unfortunately the weather has hampered a few of the stages including the Sourland Mountain Road Race which would have had racers riding some of the best and most scenic roads for biking in all of New Jersey.

The Giro ends this weekend but there is still an opportunity to see a stage with the Rock Hill Cycling Classic (with the great climb up Copper Mine Rd ) on Saturday and the Corner House Grand Prix in Princeton Township on Sunday.
