207 riders started the 2013 Giro d'Italia, but in truth, we may hear about only a fraction of those over the course of the race. But each rider has a story to tell, and GCN followed three, young, talented riders to find out just what riding a Grand Tour is all about.
In episode one we meet George Bennett, the young New Zealander from Team Radioshack-Leopard-Trek, Alex Dowsett, an Englishman on Team Movistar, and Italian Elia Viviani, top sprinter for team Cannondale Pro Cycling as they prepare for stage 1 of the 2013 Giro d'Italia.
