Giro Route Speculation

OK let's get away from the doping. Today's Il Mattino has a whole page spread on news that next year's Giro will be exploring Campania and Naples fairly extensively. The final route won't be revealed until December, but there is expected to be a sprint finish into Benevento, followed by a day along the Amalfi coast, finishing with a climb to the summit of Vesuvius, fifty years after Charly Gaul won the timetrial there. They will then set out the next morning along the seafront at Naples, heading towards Lazio.
