Dumoulin intrigued by appealing 2017 Giro d'Italia

Tom Dumoulin's debut Giro d'Italia got off to the perfect start with the Giant-Alpecin rider winning the stage 1 time trial on home soil to take the first maglia rosa of 2016. The 25-year-old came close to a second stage win on stage 4 to Praia a Mare before a saddle sore forced his abandon. A second appearance looks to be on the cards for Dumoulin, explaining he likes the look of the route for the 100th edition of the Corsa Rosa.
