Vintage Calabria, Italy. Giro d'Italia, 1954. Reggio Calabria - Catanzaro stage. The cheer of Calabrian women.
The name “Giro d'Italia” simply means "tour of Italy,” an apt name for the stage bicycle race Italy puts on each year in May. It’s one of three Grand Tours, together with the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España in Spain.
The first Giro was in 1909, put together by the sports newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport as a publicity stunt.
With any stage race, there are daily winners and overall winners. Time for each stage is accumulated throughout the entire race, and the rider who completes the entire course in the least overall time is the winner.
