so they say.
Joint bid from both NI and ROI, so the race will go to Dublin too.

Specifically through Dundrum i guess.

With the Tour and Giro starting in the UK, maybe the Vuelta can complete the group. This is Unipublic though, so they'll probably have a prologue up the Rock of Gibraltar. And I will consider this awesome, which I haven't been able to say about most of Unipublic's recent ideas.

LOL, good one.

Well, a Giro starting in Belfast/Northern Ireland and then going into Dublin/Ireland sounds very nice! There have been times when this wouldn't have been possible!

Well it is at the foot of the mourne mountains,so yeah! Hold on, you mean the Dublin suburb. Antrim coast would be most agreeable as a stage 2 also.

I checked wikipedia and it said that was where Roche was born and im guessing they will visit it to honor the one Irish Giro winner, as GTS often do.

Of course Niko would be rude to turn down peaking for this, and Dan Martin too probably.

Hopefully they make the 1 of the Irish stages hard so that one of them has a chance. I think a good idea would be rather than 3 stages as usual do 4 stages in Ireland - since they come all the way, before going back to italy.
