Live at the Giro: Inside an Albanian Grande Partenza
Update: 2025-05-12
Description
Rouleur’s Chris Marshall-Bell explores the roads, culture and politics of the first-ever Grande Partenza taking place across the Adriatic Sea in Albania. Chris spent a few days riding through the beautiful rolling roads used in stage one, chatting to locals about all things from bike racing to the cult following of a British comedian, all to find out why 2025 was one of the most unique starts in the Giro d’Italia’s history. From the vibrant liveliness of the capital of Tirana to the peaceful winding mountain roads, from the country’s communist past, its multi-faith present, to the hopes of it being the next cycling holiday destination, Chris delves into the stories behind this fascinating Balkan country.
