Bad news for Ardila

Davitamon-Lotto team manager Marc Sergeant informed Belgian TV on Sunday's Giro stage to Livigno that their Colombian rider, Mauricio Alberto Ardila Cano, had to listen to some terrible news yesterday. After losing his father years ago in a murder, Ardila found out his uncle was also murdered yesterday.
