day: riding her ass off because the group must stay away, no matter
what. If the breakaway is caught just before the finish, we still have
the problem of the bonus seconds on the line.

In the 1920s, cycling had but two Grand Tours. The Spanish were only
slowing getting into gear, in 1924 launching a tour of the Basque
Country. A Tour of Spain itself was still a long, long way off. For the

d’Italia, a comfortable formula had established itself: racing days
alternating with rest days.

I got to enjoy it last year as well I just don’t see it ever getting
old. The truth is, the staging of the race is half the show."
