Woo hoo!!!!! The
great event that everybody in Northern Ireland had been waiting for has
arrived. Belfast and Northern Ireland is hosting the Giro d'Italia Big Start
(Grande Partenza) from 9 to 11 May 2014 with three days of unmissable cycling
action. This is one of professional cycling's three Grand Tour events - with
three routes in Belfast, Armagh and Dublin. One of the routes is just outside
of my door. I’m planning on to grab my foldable seat and notebook, for the sack
of my writing, of course!!
Over 200 of the
top professional cyclists from across the globe will be in Northern Ireland to
take part. And you think, I’m going to miss that!! There will be a range of events and activities
before and during the races, including a fabulous celebration worthy of Italian
cycling traditions and the maglia rosa (the pink jersey).
So, my advice is for you to take a bike tour around Belfast and discover a range of attractions and interesting points along the way. Or, if you're feeling a bit more adventurous, try mountain biking at Barnett Demesne.
