“If you’ve never seen the Tour of Italy, then this is the year to take the plunge. In typical Italian style, the 100th Giro d’Italia will be celebrated with one of the most spectacular routes ever devised for any bike race. By visiting all of the original stage towns; Venice, Trieste, Bergamo, Milan, Turin, Florence, Bologna, Naples and Rome, this is not only an epic course but it also doubles as every tourist’s must-see itinerary for the country.” --Cycle Sport Magazine
