Would be nice to see Evans get another grand tour, but I think age is not on his side. It is the Giro, and aside from being the most beautiful race it may also be most the most unforgiving. The final week is truly brutal, and for a 37 year old with 20 years of top-level racing in his legs, it would be an amazing feat not to lose some time in the final week to the other contenders, all at least 6 years younger.
