Way to go, Ryder Hesjedal! I watched the last stage of the Giro D'Italia yesterday (several high passes, including hills up to 22% grade and the famous Stelvio), and I can't even imagine how these guys do it. Amazing!

Outstanding results for a outstanding rider!
More bikers than usual out today; every one a Ryder...
Should we declare a Commemerative National Holiday and/or the Order of Canada?

One of Ryder Hesjedal's pink jerseys from his Giro d'Italia victory has fetched US$10,300 on eBay.
The first Canadian man to win one of cycling's three Grand Tours put his Stage 7 autographed jersey up for auction.
Hesjedal has said the money will go to Canadian Athletes Now Fund, or CanFund, and also to his own cycling foundation.
A pink jersey, or maglia rosa, is worn by the Giro d'Italia's overall leader.
Hesjedal first earned it on the seventh stage of the gruelling 21-stage race and held it for two more before reclaiming it on Stage 14.
The jersey, advertised as "only slightly worn, may have champagne residue" drew 63 bids prior to close Wednesday.
“I had the opportunity to benefit from the Can Fund as an Olympic athlete early in my career and it was a big help to me," Hesjedal said in a statement posted on the Can Fund website. "It’s great to now be in a position to help give back.”

I also understand that he is going to ride the Tour De France this year, if he can win that one it will put him amongst some of the best in the world as two of the grand tours is a rare thing in the modern world.
(correct that to read when he wins)

Team Leader
for Garmin-Barracuda's 2012 Tour de France effort!
That means he's supported by (one of) the top Teams in the pro-peleton!
No less than he deserves, and he's ready to kick Euro...
