Mikayla Harvey, 22, will lead Canyon SRAM Racing in the women's Giro d'Italia, which starts in northern Italy tonight (Friday).
"It's so special to be given this role and I can't wait to go out there and make all my teammates and my team proud. I'm a little nervous but super excited at the same time," Harvey said.
"It is a little crazy being the youngest one [in the team] but then at the same time it's also really nice knowing I've got so many experienced girls to help and guide me.
