Often I see an odd 'W' symbol in the road graffiti during
the Giro (and I think during the Tour too). I assumed it
was for a rider, but I don't know which. During stage 5
it appeared in a soccer field in a large message having
something to do with Pantani. Anyone know what this
symbol means?

W in italian ViVa or french ViVe in english is Hurrah

ciao

It is disguised road [censored]; a symbol depicting female labia, also a common tattoo. They must be cracking down on the more graphic stuff this year - haven't seen much of it. I guess we'll just wait for Spain.
