Orica-GreenEdge

Orica-GreenEdge turning in their stage-winning ride

The Race: Orica-GreenEdge seems to be good at Giro d'Italia team time trials. They won the first stage handily, putting Simon Gerrans in pink for stage two. Last year they won the the Giro's stage 1 time trial as well.

Giro favorite Alberto Contador's team, Tinkoff-Saxo, turned in an excellent ride as well, being only 7 seconds slower (though they led at the mid-way time check) than the Aussies and putting him ahead of most of the other long-term GC contenders.

Most notably, Sky turned in a surprising ride, coming in ninth, nearly a half-minute slower than Orica-GreenEdge. This certainly rocks contender Richie Porte back on his heels when the race has barely begun. Finding a way to take back almost 20 seconds from Alberto Contador will be no easy task.
