EDIT: This i totally agree with. in a generation of GT winners saving everything for the last incline of the stage, this is what will stand out for a long time to come.

crap load of summit finishes (7)

 

would suit a climber who can tt. or a tt who can climb.

Totally agree, really hope Roglic goes for the Giro instead of TDF.

We know that yellow and bianchi celeste looks terrible,

 in a pink jersey i could actually watch without cringing.

The Lotto branding goes from 2019. Does that mean the yellow goes too?

It’s harder. It’s more beautiful. It’s more complicated. It’s more festive, less corporate, more beloved by the towns it passes through, the fans on its roadside, and, yes, often the riders in its peloton.

My favourite one liner from the article 

 

 

"The Giro is not structured to build to a climax as much as it is structured to deliver maximum chaos."
