The Fantasy Giro

Stage Victory to ANDREA MUNISSO’S DESFAI – Andrea is another Legend of the Giro d’italia with a partecipation in ALL 18 editions of the Giro until today, winner of the Giro in 2014. Andrea is also an active cyclist and most likely you will see him on the road when the giro hits Veneto (Andrea, tell us how you will dress up and we will look for you in TV)

Davide Guarisco’s Pro Secco Cycling Team takes the lead in the general classification

In the mountains we have a bunch of teams scoring 69 points (anyone who had Ganna in his team). The new mountain Leader is a rookie: Alberto Torriani’s Neuroneubriaco
