0:00.0	Welcome back to the Lenton Rouge Cycling Podcast for our Giro D'Talia 2024 preview brought to you by pillar performance.
0:10.8	This is our first grant to a preview of the year, Benji.
0:13.7	I'm excited, even though expectations could in theory be low,
0:17.5	we do have the shortest favorite going off
0:19.6	that we've ever covered in a grand tour on this podcast
0:22.4	and maybe in a long long time
0:23.8	Tade Pagacha obviously the elephant in the room nonetheless is preparing for the

1:07.3	for our ground tour at this point so that's the intriguing aspect of this ground
1:10.9	tour the the GC start listed and. The sprinter start list is
1:14.7	pretty stacked. I think Phillips is not here but basically half the entire sprinter world is here. So I'm
1:20.7	okay with that and there's also young climbers that might show up and take
1:25.0	stage wins here and there that I'm looking forward to so that's lovely but
