Giro Route Announcement

Posted on 12 November 2005 by cosmo

Finally! Here’s the official site, and, to save you the trouble of hacking around the Italian web page, here’s Cyclingnews’ and Daily Peloton’s reports, plus a map from Pez. The story is no change in course, depsite threats of boycotts from non-Italian teams.

    “no change in course, despite threats of boycotts…” – but CNN reports that apparently the UCI still needs to approve the split-stage:
    Organizers said that the plan to have an 11-kilometer (6.8-mile) individual time trial ending at the Ghisallo hill followed by a 116-kilometer (72-kilometer) ride to Milan on the closing day of the race still must be approved by the International Cycling Union (UCI).
