Ok, as a novice roadie I've been enjoying the Giro coverage as my first ever tour.
How do you pick up whats going on though? after reading the Armstrong books I appreciate there's a lot of strategy involved but how do you know who are domestiques, who are the sprinters etc and why do the commentators go on about the colour of their jerseys so much?
Also, (and one from the Wife although I'm starting to become intrigued) how come they never stop for a wazz? are they simply sweating all the liquid out?
Its great to watch and its awe inspiring stuff but I feel as if I'm watching a film where everyone folows the plot but me
