Well this is now tedious.

Pleasantly surprised by the route though.

What day is the Tour doing this?

Tuesday I think.

Fuglsang looks like a member of boy band :D

Not spectacular route, but not bad either. Should be fun. But May is so far away :(

Whats Scarponi saying?

He is saying that Contador and Nibali should ride Tour and not Giro :)

He also said he liked the route, that 20th stage will be decisive, and also that he looks forward to stages 6, 7 and 8 [or at least one of them, I'm not sure] because it's going through Marche, region in which he lived.

Contador and Scarponi are laughing with eachother the whole time like schoolkids.

Look at those stages in the snow from the 50's wow.

wow, that was the best video of all.

The Giro makes a big deal out of the fans, and it gets a lot of them.

They are all saying how it's very balanced and 'humane' route. Which basically means that they think it's easy route.
Well, it seems that both Giro and Tour will be far from spectacular, but it doesn't mean it will be bad.
