American Wins a Stage...

American David Zabriskie dominated an individual time trial in the Tuscan hills on Sunday to win the eighth stage of the Giro d'Italia. David set a blazing time early in the day which no other rider could match. It's the first stage win by an American this Giro.

You could tell Zabriskie hadn't been on the podium often as he looked a little embarrassed to be getting such a large bouquet of flowers and the trophy. Or maybe it was the podium girls? Hopefully this will be good practice for David's future victories!
