The carbon fiber front triangle is massive at the head tube, yet flows to a rather normal diameter at the seat tube.
He gets it! Bettini adds the world road title to his Olympic medal.
McCartney is in the main field
Horner, as always, looks happy just to be here.
You think he's happy?
Many riders, many fans... all from many countries.
American Guido Trenti on the attack
Motivated: Bettini tried, failed, tried, failed, tried again and won.
Despite the weather and the stunning scenery, it was not an easy day in the saddle.
This guy really wanted to win today
There were quite a few CSC riders in the day's big break
Ever wonder why a lot of finishline photos look like a lot of other finishline photos?
Almost. Moises Aldape and Kanstantsin Siutsou charge ahead before being joined by David Loosli and then the rest of the field.
Yahoooooo!
... and Rebellin tries his hand, too.
Unlike The Star Spangled Banner, the Italian national anthem does not end with the words 'play ball.'
Ballan gives chase...
For who's a jolly good fellow...
Vinokourov was aggressive, but missed that last little gap at the finish, too.
Some folks were more relaxed than others.
Meet the press... the media swarms the front of the peloton before the start...

Arndt was aggressive throughout, but Vos ensured that there would be no German winner for the first time in three years.
Maybe disappointed, but Cooke still holds the distinction of making the world's podium for the third time.
The day's most dangerous break formed on the Tiefenbach.
The combination was dangerous and caused concern in the peloton.

The peloton at a calmer moment
The charge to the line.
You just won the world championship!
Flat and wide open, the roads skirt the Kapuzinerberg hill just across the river from the old town. There’s a McDonald’s along the route where Chris Horner can load up on carbohydrates before the race.
This upper section could be open to winds as well.
The first of two climbs comes at Oberesch at 7.1km on a wide-open road with grades as steep as 8 percent . . .
After fast, a long, fast downhill from Elixhausen, the course rolls back into Salzburg proper with flat, wide open roads, but it might be too late to pull back a break at 13km to go.
. . . , but it’s really just a moderate push up a large hump.
The last kilometer banner brings the route into some tricky corners coming into the final sprint.
Imaginative locals have dressed up their farm fields with life-sized cyclists made of wood.
The final straightaway is a clear, 300-meter shot to the line.
Look, there’s the Eddy Merckx campground!
Bettini wants to add a rainbow jersey to his Olympic gold
The road narrows as it pushes off the main highway toward the most decisive sections of the course.
