Bradley Wiggins and Dario Cioni are joined by Michael Barry, Steve Cummings, Chris Froome, Mathew Hayman, Greg Henderson, Morris Possoni and Chris Sutton. The 21-stage event starts with a time trial in Amsterdam on 8 May and finishes with another race against the clock in Verona on 30 May. It covers 3,418 kilometres in total and takes in fabled mountains Monte Zoncolan, Plan de Corones - which is used for the stage 16 time trial - and the Gavia Pass. Team Principal Dave Brailsford said: "We're all incredibly excited about racing in the Giro d'Italia. It is Team Sky's debut in a Grand Tour event and another special moment for us." |
