[Wyndbrook]

Could the Giro d’Italia be heading to Australia?

Unpicking one of the stranger rumoured race starts in cycling history.

Absolutely stupid.

Mike Tomalaris reports RCS in talks with the Australian town of Perth (6 hours time difference) to start the Giro in 2027

Tomalaris is an idiot and most likely missing the spotlight since SBS sacked him a few years ago, he’s says it’s more than a rumour and it’s happening blah blah but I’m betting it’s nothing more than a low level thought bubble. Even if it’s semi serious it won’t happen, it’s like when they were talking about a US start in Washington DC that never happened.

I agree but to be fair, they need to do something as it is now Giro is incredibly boring

Is it likely to happen? No ? There is no point slagging off Tomalaris who has reported factual news. And Vegni failed to dispel the rumour.

The only way that this would be achievable would be if the around the corner supersonic passenger plane is in service and the racing necessities could be staged ahead of time. Even then looking at a world map not sure of the route and how long it would take even with supersonic travel.

Can say that Plapp will be unpopular with the politiians and the like with his intemperate remarks about the proposal. Then again if you ask Durbridge he will probably say its a fantastic idea.
