Giro in Slovakia instead of DC?

Or so says this oddly written CN article. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/giro-ditalia-heading-to-slovakia  If it happens, I'm calling dibs on the preview.

The lines dissing DC's bid seem like a competitor's PR but Zomegnan visiting Slovakia looks like the real deal.  The guys he met are heavy hitters in Slovakia's new government, and Miklos is their Adrian Fenty.  Enel is Italy's chief economic interest in Slovakia:  think C. Montgomery Burns' nuclear plant, run by a guy who sort of looks like an even older Mario Cipollini, built a few kilometers from Peter Velits' hometown.

Bratislava could put on a show-stopping Ardennes-style loop course -- the climb to the TV tower above the city is 4.7 km @ 6.4 percent, and there are a lot of 1 km @ 10-15 percent gradients around the castle next to the old town.  They do have to figure out how to deal with all the peloton-destroying curving tram tracks.  I still feel the pain they caused.   Great place for a prologue on the cobbles too.

Bottom line it's a beautiful country and I hope they get the Giro.
