Slipstream to Giro d'Italia

Link: Slipstream scores Giro invite
Nice!

American continental professional team Slipstream-Chipotle has received an invitation to compete at this year's Giro d'Italia, Slipstream team manager Jonathan Vaughters confirmed with VeloNews Saturday.

Vaughters got the news last week from RCS director Angelo Zomegnan, who is expected to announce the full list of teams invited to the Giro in coming days. In addition to the May 10-June 10 Giro, Vaughters said Slipstream would compete in other RCS events such as Milan-San Remo, held March 7, and Tirreno-Adriatico, held March 12-18.

That's great news! Now they just need to get an invite to the Tour de France. We'll have to wait and see on that one. Can't wait for the Tour of California...
