The Giro’s third rest day in Salò on Monday gives us pause to consider the curious intersection of the Lake Garda resort’s notorious history, one of the more scandalous films of the 20th century – and why the Corsa Rosa is as much epic journey as bike race.

What happened in Salò? Who was Pier Paolo Pasolini? And do the Giro riders of 2022 consider themselves adventures and explorers or just racers?

Featuring interviews with Giro director Mauro Vegni, Chris Juul-Jensen, Guillaume Martin and others. Today’s Kilometre 0 ponders all of this and the allure of perhaps cycling’s greatest road trip, in the country they call Il Bel Paese.
