Riding his first event after crashing out of the Giro d’Italia, David Zabriskie finished 12th on today’s eerily quiet two-circuit, 47 km time trial course. Canadian Ryder Hesjedal finished 16th and the win went to world champion time trialist Fabian Cancellara.

A mustachioed Zabriskie would have been quicker by three mins., oh well. It is great seeing him back on a bike no matter what is going on with his upper lip.

I agree with the latter of franko’s statement.

Great job Dave! I’m sure the results weren’t what you were hoping for, but it’s great to see you back.

Great job Ryder, as well.
