The route of the 2021 Giro D'Italia is littered with the brutal mountains of the Apennines, the Pyrenees, and the Alps. Although the Queen's stage itself was shortened, the profile alone is truly epic. Feeling inspired, Conor and Hank decided to honour the race by creating their own Queen's stage here in the UK. With over 200km and over 5000m of elevation on the menu, this was going to be one brutal day in the saddle. Will they make the time cut? Will they even make it to the finish?! You'll have to watch to find out...
