Giro Del Trentino 2012

[Eshnar]

Dunno if someone posted it already (it's been announced a couple of weeks ago), but it's official that the 3rd stage of next Trentino will feature the (never used before) climb to Punta Veleno! The stage will finish 2.7 kms after the peak of this crazy climb (that has been rumoured for the Giro D'Italia a while ago)

PS: Just noticed it in the 2012 speculation thread. My bad, sorry.

The final stage will finish on the Passo Pordoi.

Pordoi in April...I expect this stage to be shortened due to snow.

I can't imagine climbing Pordoi without Fedaia before

I refuse to imagine Pordoi without Fedaia before.

too bad it won't be live,we'll see again some highlights of pordoi and that's it... trentino should be broadcasted live cause it's awesome

yeah... and it's not the only race that should be live.

 

[Eshnar]

So...
Stage 1: TTT (Where?)
Stage 2: ??? - Sant'Orsola (hilly)
Stage 3: ??? - Prada (hilly, with Punta Veleno at 2.7 kms to go)
Stage 4: Castelletto Di Brenzone - Pordoi (MTF)

As for stage 4, including San Pellegrino and Fedaia before Pordoi it would be around 220 kms.

Awesome

These italian guys draw some...insane parcours to say the least. They sure know how to respect the history of the race and the sport itself.

It wouldnt surprise me if it's still around Riva del Garda or Arco.

 

[Eshnar]

Stage 1 Riva Del Garda - Arco Di Trento 15.5 kms TTT
Stage 2 Mori - Sant'Orsola Terme
Stage 3 ??? - Prada
Stage 4 Castelletto Di Brenzone - Passo Pordoi

So we still don't know the start of the third stage, and above all the route of the final one.

Considering Punta Veleno the day before i doubt they will do San Pellegrino and Fedaia,but on the opposite just going thru val di Fiemme and Fassa, with no climb before Pordoi would be disappointing.

Climbing S.Pellegrino and Fedaia would be tough but not crazily hard. I really hope they won't do Pordoi only.
