Press release
GEOLOGIRO 2014
The "GeoloGiro" is a project created to acquaint the general public with the geological and geomorphological characteristics of the routes of the Cycling Tour of Italy through the landscape - configured as a plot of racing uphill, downhill and plais. The combination cycling-territory-science has been a great success in the 2013 Tour of Italy and for this reason it is repeated in the 2014 edition, thanks to a collaboration between ISPRA, National Council of Geologists, Gazzetta dello Sport (organizer of the event), Italian Cycling Federation and RAI. A short space during the program "Anteprima Giro" will be dedicated to the "Geologiro" project.
