Too little entertainment over 3 weeks.
Drop the backloading, don't make all the mountain stages MTFs, design better "flat" stages and include a couple of tough hilly stages.
GC wise, Rolland and Hejsedal lifted the action with Quintana and Aru chipping in. Otherwise way too much wheelsucking and not enough risk talking by other players.
I welcome Bouhanni on the bigger scene. He stepped up when the chance came along.
Pirazzi finally getting a stage win was nice.
Best stage for me was the MTT with the Stelvio debacle coming 2nd.
I think TdF and Vuelta will beat the Giro this year, but you never know.
