EVENT DESCRIPTION
Ride like a pro in the Giro d'Italia TT Challenge!
One of cycling's three Grand Tours, the Giro d'Italia is a prestigious multi-stage pro cycling race that runs for three weeks each year in May and June. We're giving the entire Zwift community a taste of what the pros will race in the 102nd Giro d'Italia.
