If it fitted Basso it's unlikely to fit any of us. It might fit one of your dogs Marmion, and you could rename it Burillo...

One can only hope Kirby wasn't in charge of booking in and had to identify everyone else by name

What's your plans? I remember you posting a while ago but think you only mentioned watching a stage finish.

Plan to get across to see stage one roll through Sassari before heading to the finish in Olbia. The following day will be seeing them depart Olbia before heading out to see them on route. Will be working out exactly where soon.

The team presentation is being held tonight, it's worth a gander but probably best if you also had a nearby bar/restaurant to retire to once it gets a bit "samey".

@User33236 Davide Martinelli of Team Quick Step is trying to find a copy of his sticker (so far he has opened 100s of packets and cannae find himself!) and QS have offered a branded water bottle to the first person who turns up at their team bus with a copy of his sticker - go on, you know you want to buy loads of stickers.
I'd do it myself if I was there...

VeloNews podcast Giro preview has referred to it as "the worst PR idea ever" and a "dumpster fire", while speculating it was a way to attract attention in the week before the race, as well as some money from Pirelli.

Anyone with stronger google-fu than me able to tell me if there is any live coverage of the team presentation this evening?

I asked the same question the other day, because I can't find anything. Particularly enjoyed watching the TdF one last year.
