Thanks Gents; excited for the Albanians for this opportunity and hopeful we'll all enjoy those three days of the Giro '25. Appreciate all you do here; please carry on! Cheers from the dreary Pacific NW of the dreary US!
Could be interesting. Maybe a breakaway will gain 5 minutes on a stage (like Ben O'Connor in the vuelta) and we get a less typical winner. Can't say I'm likely to watch many of the stages live - looking forward to your recaps!
Making your geographical comments on Italy I think you forgot about the Apennines. Just a huge long mountainous backbone along the length of Italy. ;) Easy done ey! :)
It's an overwhelming route... so many flat stages or stages that are not quite hard enough to be GC days... The riders make the race but this route is not promising... Maybe the list of racers going will make it somewhat exciting.

Thanks guys, for the Giro route information! ❤ 🚴♂️
Thanks guys can't wait for the 2025 season to kick off.
Top job guys getting a route assessment out so quickly. Wonder how the route will be assessed once the startlist is complete.

Baby Giro
You don’t know much about the geography of Italy if you think there are only climbs in the north..
Worst GT route I can remember for a while. Yikes. Not much point watching stages other than 2, 7, 9, 10, 16, 19, 20 by the looks of it
Yeah it’s pretty bad. Last giro was great route but only Pog went. This Giro maybe we at least getting better top riders lol 😅
What's wrong with it
@@jjnnhl1032 too many pure breakaway days where there there is no point in the GC guys attacking
GC has been overrated for years now
