“No stress,” Jai Hindley says of the unforeseen obstacles that sprouted up along his approach to this year’s Giro d’Italia and it’s hard not to take him at his word. 

At last October’s race, after all, when he found himself on the cusp of a surprise overall victory he carried himself with the demeanour of a man enthused by the opportunity rather than overwhelmed by the occasion.
