Beautiful work once again - the Stelvio in particular is gorgeous
A very hard stage to have, especially so early on in the race - although you seem to have both the Gavia and the Stelvio as Cima Coppi climbs on the profile?

Yes, Stelvio is the Cima Coppi climbs.
I created a Tour de France and a Vuelta with very original mountain stages.
But, for this Giro, I really wanted to do some great Italian legend climbs.
So to be original, it's the configuration of the Giro with the layout of the mountain stages that is special. We will not finish by the Dolomites...
Also, I didn't want this Giro will be decided in the last week as this year in reality. All 3 weeks will be important !
So, don't worry, there will be nice and big steps to end. A spectacular finish! |

I think Stromeon meant the fact that both the Gavia and Stelvio are .HC, while in RL only 1 climb in the Giro gets HC, the Cima Coppi.
Your screens are excellent and your stages seem highly detailed. I'll certainly enjoy this variant when it's done.

Thank you, I also saw your Giro and is complementary to mine because the course is actually quite different.
For the Cima Coppi, we had a debate in the French community on PCM France. I asked if they preferred one HC, the Cima Coppi, or more HC because there are many very difficult passes. This is the second possibility was chosen.

Yeah, but in RL we only have a HC, the Cima Coppi
And yeah, we have a lot of difficult passes in RL as well

Wow, I was looking over the screens of stage 6 because I saw it finished in Venezia. I went there on a school tour in July. I must say, you made an extremely accurate city in a PCM stage. It looks beautiful! Well done

Thank you, it's always pleasant to have that kind of comment
For all major cities that I cross, I search in Internet for its architectural features.
And when it is an start or a finish city, I try to be as close to the most spectacular places.
I travel a bit with my Stage Editor. And maybe next summer I would go to Croatia through Italy. It made me want |

Another excellent-looking stage - with the Finestre fairly early on in the stage combined with the short length of the stage, it's perfectly suited to a long range attack; good work!

Stage 12 : Briançon (Fra) - Borgo San Dalmazzo (207 km)
Même si elle n'arrive pas au sommet, cette étape est peut-être la plus difficile de ce Giro avec quatre cols de plus de 2000 mètres à gravir sur une distance d'à peine plus de 200 km.
Le départ est en France à Briançon au pied du Col d'Izoard avec lequel débute le calvaire des coureurs.
L'arrivée à Borgo San Dalmazzo est juste après le plus "facile" des cols de la journée et le moins connu : Madonna del Colletto.
Spoiler Briançon (1238 m) et ses nombreux forts environnants
Col d'Izoard (2361 m) avec le Refuge Napoléon au premier plan
Casse Déserte avec la Stèle Louison Bobet et Fausto Coppi
Colle dell'Agnello (2744 m)
Sprint intermédiaire à Sampeyre (965 m)
Colle di Sampeyre (2284 m)
Colle della Fauniera (2511 m) avec le monument à la gloire de Marco Pantani
Demonte juste avant la dernière ascension
Madonna del Colletto (1308 m)
Borgo San Dalmazzo (629 m)

This is one of, if not the best stages I have ever seen! Not only is it stupendously difficult but also so detailed. Did you manually modify the terrain in the Casse Deserte btw?
