Alberto Contador has won the 2008 Giro d’Italia. What makes this truly an amazing feat is the Astana team was invited to the race only a week before the start! Can you imagine the last minute prep and chaos and prep that needed to take place. Amazing! It’s a fact – Johan Bruyneel knows exactly what it takes to win the big races. Talent and determination can take you to great places. However, to achieve greatness with consistency is very special and we’re seeing some of the greatest coaching and guiding in the history of cycling. Congratulations to the Astana team – truly a legend in the making.
