IT seems that the 2009 Giro d'Italia would be very scenic. The stages - as they goes - are untraditional: first week: Dolomites, then in the middle: Milano ITT, and at the end Blockhaus and Vesuvio and the finish in Rome!

Before it I found interesting and hard Blockhaus that I should climb it in the near future, but after it I had more serious motivation.... maybe 1 day before or after the Giro and to see them (racers) ??

Yes, something very different from the classical tours with the Dolomites to end the third week. But great BIg climbs at the end : Blockhaus and Vesuvio. It would be a vulcanic battle bom

The next giro d' Itala is many various from those precedence. This fact has had to the celebration of the giro number 100 and the organizers have thought to celebrate an anniversary rather than to a sport manifestation
