TAPPA 15 Giro d'Italia 2013



Tappa 15 Giro d'Italia 2013


On the way to Mont Cenis
The peloton is truculent
for the most part
showing solidarity
and a lot of heart
They're upset about conditions
And the stage  route
Tappa 15 can be a brute
At 80 KM they roll
through the snow banks
The racing has started
Let's all give thanks
The most interesting 
thing to me
Is how the peloton
exerts its' personality
Directors sportif
may have their say
but the peloton rules
at the end of the day
Visconti and Weening
are in the break
The Galibier
everyone awaits
They're  on
the Telegraph
climbing dictates 
Pirazzi and Weening
take off the breaks
Astana stays cool
yet in control
as the peloton
continues to roll
The danger men
are scrutinized
Astana looks with
calmness wise
10 K  to go
it's anyone's race
some are just trying
to save face
Visconti is scrambling
and getting the points
it will be the climbers
who fortune anoints
Nibali wins!
He takes it in stride
The end of a harrowing ride
