The route is mental! :shock:

Makes the Tour look like a ride in the park.

Me, I prefer it to the Tour these days. I like how its a bit earlier in the year so the weather can be anything from freezing cold to boiling hot.

There is risk of snow at the moment. And a few K of one of the climbs is gravel

I always look forward to the Giro, It's my favourite grand tour.

That maybe because I love Italy. The best thing about watching Road cycling in my house is my missus has a huge knowledge on cycling and can give me a run down on teams and riders as I watch.
Although I do get three weeks of her shouting expletives at the telly when riders she doesn't like are on.

Giro

I am like Al, the Giro is by far my favourite grand Tour, has been for many years.
Also my wife is very similar in that she knows who's who and the ins and outs of all the teams.
Looking forward to this one as it seems it may even top last years great Giro.
