Australian Jai Hindle (Bora Hansgrohe) is “proud” that he is the first Australian cyclist to win the Giro d’Italia, a fact confirmed after the final test during the 105th edition to enter the Roman amphitheater in Verona.
After having honey on his lips in 2020, when Hindley finished second in beating the pink jersey on the final day, also in Verona, the “ausie” cyclist fought “to the death” to not repeat the bitter experience .
“I have a lot of emotions together. I was aware of what happened in 2020. Winning the Giro is incredible. I felt very good, like I was flying. I can’t allow that experience to repeat again. I was receiving references in the time trial and I felt pretty good on the bike. So eventually I was able to carefully and secure the corners, “Hindley explained at the end.
Hindley (Perth, 26 years old), goes down in the history of cycling in his country. His compatriot Cadel Evans came to wear a pink jersey, but did not achieve the final victory.
“I am a proud Australian and I am pleased to bring home this victory, as the first Australian to win the Giro d’Italia,” he concludes.
