'Dale Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Giro d’Italia 2016: Race overview 3,463.1km across 21 stages, May 6-Sunday May 29Three time trials, seven flat stages, seven hilly stages, four mountain finishes61.1km of individual time trial, no team time trialRace starts with an individual time trial in Apeldoorn in the Netherlands and ends with a road race stage to TurinThe Giro d’Italia starts from outside of Italy for the 12th time its history
'Dale Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Interesting fact: This year’s Giro d’Italia will no doubt help discover several new riders but will also be a farewell Grand Tour for Fabian Cancellara. The Trek-Segafredo rider has decided to add the Giro d’Italia to his programme to celebrate his Italian origins. It will be his 20th Grand Tour of his career but he has yet to finish the Giro d’Italia.
ScottCM Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 TrekSegafredo.com: What do you expect from the team?Ryder Hesjedal: Clearly Giacomo is on a good way, winning twice in Croatia. I know he is very hungry for a win in the Giro. He did an incredible Giro last year to take the points jersey, but he didn't have the win. We were talking one day when training, that between the two of us we have probably 20 second places in Giro stages! Definitely to just win a stage there is incredible for any rider, and I have not done that except for the team time trial, so that would also be something that would be nice for myself. http://www.treksegafredo.com/blog/qa-giro-preview-nizzolo-and-hesjedal Hope Ryder can win it this year again.
ScottCM Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 Treksegafredo.com: Can you say the Giro is your favorite race?Ryder: For sure it has a special place in my heart. Winning it was, I guess, my masterpiece in cycling. I respected the Giro incredibly before I won, and I personally feel like it is the hardest race in the world. To say that I have won it, is something that makes me smile for sure. I feel that I have honored the race the best I can by going back every year since that. I give it everything for the Giro, and that's all I can do.
Shebeen Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 It's gonna be an important race for OGE'a Chavez.He's been showing promise. The best smile in the PRO pelotonwithout a doubt, but with caleb ewan there the team will have split responsibilities. look forward to seeing how the amount of TT, mountain TT and late big mountains finds the winner.
