Due to the contingency we have at this time worldwide (covid 19) they announced
that the Hungarian government has declared a state of emergency. This prohibits
the organization of mass events and makes it impossible to organize international
events.
As a consequence, the Organizing Committee of the Hungarian stages of the Giro
d'Italia declared that the start of the Giro could not take place in Hungary at the
originally scheduled time (May 9 to 31). All parties have agreed that they are
determined to work together to allow the Giro d'Italia to leave Hungary at a later
time.
The new date will be announced after April 3 when the provisions of the D.P.C.M.
(Decree of the President of the Council of Ministers of the Italian Republic) of
March 4, 2020 end, and only after having consulted with the appropriate
representatives of the Italian Government, local and territorial authorities and
Italian and international sports institutions. After this date it was announced that the
Giro d'Italia Legends will finally be the launch of a digital experience developed in
collaboration with Garmin Edge and Tacx, where no classification is foreseen, from

great former cycling cyclists who will pedal at the Giro d'Italia Legends along with

Cycling is an important sport that many people like and it is getting more and more
recognition in our country (Colombia) and despite the fact that due to the
contingency we are experiencing the Giro d'Italia it cannot be done in the way it
was planned is a good entertainment and has a good purpose that is to alleviate
the Coronavirus crisis a bit.
