Giro d’Italia Stage 18 preview: Penultimate chance for sprinters ahead of weekend GC showdown

Giro d'Italia – stage 18 map - (giroditalia.it)

It’s (comparatively) short and sweet today, 144km from Morbegno in Lombardy to Cesano Maderno, and it’s another one of these stages with a few climbs in the first half before a long, flat run-in to an expected bunch sprint.
