No women, no Giro

The main colour of the Giro d’Italia is pink, so it’s not surprising that there are so many girls following it as fans or working at the race. For example, you can see them dancing in the publicity caravan, the colourful parade of official sponsors that precedes the riders every day, distributing giveaways to the spectators waiting along the road for the big cycling show. And, of course, during the first three stages in Israel, you couldn’t miss the local beauty Bar Refaeli, godmother of the Giro’s first Grande Partenza outside Europe. On the podium of every stage, you can also meet the wonderful women ready to award the pink jersey for the leader of the general classification, the cyclamen jersey for the points classification leader, the blue jersey for the best climber and the white jersey for the best young rider.

But back to the team bus area, where the first crowds are gathering. And how could it be any different? Every cycling fan circles in red on the calendar the day in May when the Corsa Rosa comes to town and looks forward eagerly to breathing in the excitement of elite-level cycling, hearing the noise of the wheels on the asphalt, and being able to watch his or her own heroes from just a few centimetres away. This is how it was during the three Sicilian stages, which re-embraced the Giro d’Italia after the extraordinary interlude in Israel. It’s a colourful invasion, with pink as the dominant colour to celebrate the arrival of the 101st edition of the most beloved race in Italy. Beginning in the ...
