MILAN (Reuters) - Giro d'Italia champion Chris Froome said he is still undecided about riding in next year's edition but added that the start of the 102nd route, announced on Wednesday, looked explosive.

The Team Sky rider became the first Briton to win the century-old race in May, and was briefly the first cyclist in 35 years to hold all three Grand Tours at the same time.
