The 30th edition of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Giro Rosa will get und🅰erway on July 5 and will mark th🌟e centenary of Fausto Coppi’s birth on the opening stage, an 18km team time trial that finishes in Il Campionissimo’s birthplace of Castellania.

The mighty Gavia, which stands at an altitude of 2,621 metres, first featured in the men’s Giro d’Italia in 1960 and gained everlasting notoriety after Andy Hampsten’s snowbound ascent into the maglia rosa in 1988. The Gavia was included as a summit finish at the under-23 Giro in 2012, when Joe Dombrowski defeated Fabio Aru on its slopes t𝓡o claim final overall victory in the race.
The Gavia tappone is followed by another demanding day in Valtellina on stage 6, a stiff uphill time trial from Chiuro to Teglio. T𒆙he 12km test should provoke significant๊ gaps among the GC contenders.
After a finish in Fara Vincentina on stage 7, the Giro Rosa spends🀅 its final three days in the Friuli region, and though the rumoured stage over Monte Crostis has not come to pass, a spectacular conclusion to the race is in store.
Maniago hosts the finish of stage 8, before another difficult stage in the high mountains from Gemona to the summit finish at Malga Montasio. The finishing climb has an average gradient of 8.1 per cent and pitches of 20 per cent. It featured on the men’s Giro in 2013, when Rigoberto Uran was th♓e stage winner.
