Ppman replied to the thread Giro d'Italia Rate the 2026 Giro d'Italia route.7- routes don’t exist in vacuums- you could make this 65000 meters of climbing and you’d get a substandard field. This is a route that...

Ppman replied to the thread Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2026 Route: Speculation, Rumours and Announcements.I like it. It looks like a more exciting route than the Tour. At least more of a balanced route. I’d love for the 40k time trial to be...
