May 04, 2018 (Jerusalem, Israel) – In the build up to the 2018 Giro d’Italia’s historic start in Jerusalem marking the first time any Grand Tour has ever been held outside Europe, the Israel Cycling Academy revealed their Giro secret weapon. Current Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, is an accomplished rider himself and is stoked that the Giro has landed in Israel telling the team, “I’m here to help if needed.” We think other world leaders should take notes and “Hop On” as we say here in Canada.
