A crazy day at the Giro d’Italia saw the race’s shortest stage treat us to more action than the previous 13 stages combined. If I tell you that Simon Philip Yates, from Bike Exchange, won in Turin, ahead of Bora’s Jai Hindley and Ineos’s Richard Carapaz (who is the new race leader), I’d be sharing only a scintilla of what happened.
Kathi, Midge, Luke and Euan convene at VeloVoices Towers to discuss the first week of the 2022 Giro d’Italia.
There’s a lot of love for Juan Pedro Lopez, Thomas De Gendt, Guillaume Martin, Biniam Girmay and many more.
We chat about how GCN have upped their game (lots of Robbie love), how Hungary embraced the race and, in a rare occurrence, we all agree on who we’d really like to win the Giro.
For the hipsters, Midge delivers a breakdown of Tro Bro Leon and find out about Luke’s search for the perfect extra thick milkshake.
