The peloton of the Giro d’Italia had a close call on yesterday’s 13th stage when two horses bolted from a farm, running alongside the peloton for a time.
The incident took place when the horses were apparently frightened by the noise of a helicopter and escaped from a farm to run beside the riders. Fortunately though, they didn’t run into the pack.
The footage was filmed from one of the Lampre-Farnese Vini team cars.

Happened once in the Coors Classic too, circa 1985 maybe?
