Inspired by the contest, I'll tracked a Tour Down Under absolutely out of the contest.
To keep the level of difficulty high, i leave start and finish line where they were (except for Adelaide in last stage)
Here it is what it camed out
Stage 1: Port Adelaide > Lyndoch

There is really not too much to change here. I kept the sprinter stage as it was.
Stage 2: Unley > Stirling

This stage is transformed in a little Liege, with two hard but short climbs in the final.
Stage 3: Glenelg > Victor Harbor

Stage 3 is the second and last for pure sprinters. I'd flatten this more than it was, but I also added a portion on the bay, exposed to the wind
Stage 4: Norwood > Uraidla

A more difficult stage with an hard climb (over 10% slopes) as penultimate climb with a longer climb in the final with only 3 Kms of descent
Stage 5: McLaren Vale > Willunga Hill

I already like the stage as it was. Difficult making it more harder keeping the finish line. So i added another hill.
Stage 6: Adelaide > Adelaide ITT

Stop the final boring stage, let's make an ITT to make also Time Trialist in the game.

Giro 101 - Amore infinito
Here it is our proposal for Giro 101. Hope you will enjoy it

Stage 1 will test the Wallonie part of Belgium with Mur de Huy faced far from the first uphill finish in Seraing

Stage 2 will celebrate 30 years since Fondriest 1988 victory in Renaix. Stage will feature the flemish part of region with iconic climbing of Kwaremont and Paterberg
Rest Day

First sprinter stage will be when the race will came back in Italy in Castel Volturno.

Medium Mountain stage in Apice, first day for the breakaway

Second sprinter stage in Barletta. Final is exposed to the sea

Back to back for Sprinters in Roseto degli abruzzi

Michele Scarponi stage with Finish in Filottrano after Muro (same of this year's Tirreno). Two gravel road climb in the middle as the Muro di Cingoli

Weekend will be closed by the first summit finish with Petrano back on the route after 9 years.
Rest Day

A medium mountain stage will open the second week with one of Tuscany most harder and iconic finishes at Ciocco

Sprinters are back on Salsomaggiore Terme stage

First ITT

"The outlets stage" from Fidenza to Serravalle. A Medium Mountain stage with a forgotten Giro mountain, passo Penice

Third weekend of race will be opened by Pian del Re back in Giro after 1991 and 1992 stages
