Giro di Toscana
The Giro di Toscana is a road bicycle race held annually in Tuscany, Italy. From 2005 to 2014, the race has been organised as a 1.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour. The race was not held in 2015. On April 4, 2016, it was announced that the race will return in September 2016 as a three-race challenge (similar to the Trittico Lombardo or Vuelta a Mallorca), consisting in three one-day races held consecutively in Tuscany. Each race will award points to the best placed riders, and the rider who score most points will win the overall classification of Giro della Toscana. This new edition will be named Giro della Toscana - Memorial Alfredo Martini, in memory of Alfredo Martini, former cyclist and coach of the Italian national team.[1]

Winners
gollark: The UK's is... somewhat less bad, as at least recently had a vaguely credible third party, and it doesn't have a system quite as bad as the electoral college, at least.
gollark: It *is* annoying how badly many countries' electoral systems are broken.
gollark: But they didn't really want to explicitly say as much because it would sound bad.
gollark: A plausible explanation I heard about the whole thing is that the Navy was assuming that it wouldn't go away for a while, and that the people on their ships were not very at risk of bad symptoms but also likely to get infected in large numbers and couldn't really be pulled out of service.
gollark: I too enjoy dying from easily preventable diseases.
