The Race: The Giro's first climbing has arrived in stage five with two climbs of the ascent to Viggiano, the second one being a hill-top finish. It was another day of racing in the rain.

Cycling's 50 Craziest Stories

At the start of the first Viggiano climb the pink jersey group was led by BMC and all the riders from the day's early break had been mopped up. Europcar rider Bjorn Thurau was the last holdout.

The organizers warned the riders that with the rain, the technical descent was perilous. The riders went down the hill with care, except for Gianluca Brambilla who descended fearlessly.

Brambilla had 30 seconds as the pack started the final ascent under sunny skies, with about four kms to go. Katusha dragged the remaining riders in the the maglia rosa group up to Brambilla with a little more than a kilometer remaining.

Nicolas Roche attacked under the red kite, but he was immediately neutralized. Joaquin Rodriguez and Cadel Evans started a drag race to the finish but Diego Ulissi went by everyone to win the stage.
