Sorry. All copies of this Special Edition have been sold.

This is a very special edition of the standard book.

For the special edition of Maglia Rosa - Triumph and tragedy at the Giro d'Italia, the author, Herbie Sykes, undertook a Giro d'Italia of his own. He travelled 2,400km in five days to gather the autographs of 14 genuine Giro legends. Each man hand-signed the 120 books to help create a truly unique document spanning some seven decades. Between them they account for 17 Giro d'Italia wins, a further 31 podium places, and over 80 stage victories.
