The Giro d'Italia is coming to Northern Ireland this weekend One of the 3 big cycling races each year along with the Tour de France and Vuelta a España. Towns and villages of Northern Ireland are awash with a sea of pink streamers, bicycles, monuments lit up in (what has become locally known as) 'Giro pink' in the evening ....
