We've got our first tricky stage of the Giro tomorrow. With rough hilltops, rolling roads and some rain in the mix it will be hard for the sprinter teams to control the array of opportunists looking for a big win!

Sestola is taking in another finish of the Giro but to get there the peloton will have to get through a rain soaked day full of little climbs, that will see the GC action kick off hard in the sharp Colle Passerino. Tighten your seatbelt!

A pan-flat day for the sprinters on paper but the wind can make it quite different!

In San Giacomo tomorrow we'll have the first summit finish of the race in what is a decently complicated stage, right after a day that has implicated some big changes to the race.

After another brutal day the sprinters will get their chance to come to the fore, on a day that shall be marked by wild wind and a technical finish that will have a nasty ramp very close to the line!

Tomorrow is a textbook breakaway day and we play breakaway bingo once again! But no ordinary one as we've got a day suited to plenty of riders and where a surprise can easily pop.

Weird to have so many of these medium mountain type days early on. Think your list of possible contenders is pretty spot on.

The Giro will go wild tomorrow! The final gravel climb to the line is just the mere ending to a roller-coaster day in the Appennines that will be blasted with intense wind once again where the GC can be blown up.

And it's another potential wild day, with a short stage that is made for the sprinters but will be eyed by the rouleurs as they look to profit from a crazy windy day inbetween the big mountains!

Yeah I agree, but it's the Giro formula and it works, has been pretty exciting so far!

We have got the most important stage so far in the white Tuscan roads where it will be a dangerous, trecherous, nervous race as the GC riders all look to survive the unpredictable roads that will lead them to Montalcino!

Tomorrow is the final and most dangerous day in the Appennines. Either a big GC clash or a fight between the strongest outsider climbers will happen (or both!), there will be no shortage of action

The race is moving towards the Alps and in Verona tomorrow we have the final opportunity for the pure sprinters to succeed, in what is possibly the flattest stage one could design in Italy.

The mythical Zoncolan is on the menu for tomorrow on what is set to be a nasty wet day as the riders enter the Alps and the real gaps will start being made!

A rainy hilly day with some riding through Slovenia will be ridden tomorrow, it's a stage where anything can happen pretty much, as the sprinter teams are set to control the race but the rouleurs and puncheurs will make it a living hell for them!

The QUEEN stage tomorrow in the Dolomites.
An absurd amount of climbing, high altitude mountains and a lot of rain are set to make this an epic that will take every single rider to the limit!

The Giro will enter it's final and decisive week with a brutal combination of climbs culminating in the vicious Sega di Ala. The race has reached organization, but now fatigue will really start to make the difference!

No rest as tomorrow we've got a very interesting hilly finale that will see a battle between the sprinters and the puncheurs, AND a breakaway-crazy peloton!

The Alpe di Mera awaits the riders tomorrow for another big GC battle, possibly a highly contested stage win that can throw up big surprises in this final week!

The final mountain stage in this year's Giro! It was a great one but it's not over yet, big climbs and altitude await the peloton tomorrow where big attacks are expected from far.
