Great. Check the Mortirolo! That is cruel! King of all climbs by average gradient!

And Aprica is not a GPM because even Jimmy Casper can`t be dropped on a climb like that. So it would be very unusual if Petacchi and McEwen would sprint for a GPM. Thats why..

The Giro's site in Gazzetta dello Sport has excellent profiles from the climbs.

 

[Virenque]

The best of all races`! Altimetry is great and they also have planimetry. A lot better than TdF`s and Vuelta`s profiles.

Thought I might bump this up so people can have a look at the profiles for tomorrows monster stage. Those climbs look really, really nasty.

Every cyclist should do Mortirolo atleast once in his/her life ;-)
Saturday i'll be there or on Gavia but this snow banks and cold could make me decide for Mortrolo
