Giro d'Italia : the story of the world's most beautiful bike race

Books
The story of the Giro d'Italia, more demanding and unpredictable even than the Tour de France, is as dramatic and characterful as that of Italy itself. Heroism, suffering, feuds and betrayals, tradition under threat from modernity, all play out against a landscape of extremes.
