Thoughts about the leaked final week of the Giro d'Italia 2026? From Lasterketa Burua on the bad site. A couple of trends from the last few years continue: 1. Putting the hardest climbs as the 2nd or 3rd to last to promote long-range attacks. 2. The same big climb repeated twice (like Monte Grappa)

A driver, a cyclist, and a pedestrian show up at a party. They find a plate with 10 cookies.
The driver immediately grabs 9 cookies.
He then turns to the pedestrian and says, "You better watch out, that cyclist is going to steal your cookie!”
