That`s why Iban`s my hero
I often start thinking about why exactly Iban is my hero. Why not Cunego, Zubeldia or Bettini for that matter? Why is Iban the one I look up to? I didn`t choose to support him, it just came naturally to me. I`ll try to sum it up everything I like about him:
- He`s extremely talented
- He`s a nice and caring man
- He`s not as over-confident as many other cyclists tend to be
- He`s a climber
- He`s Basque
- He`s not doped. I`m convinced of that
- He`s got flair
- He`s got charisma
- He`s got panache
- He`s the biggest talent of his generation
- He`s just special and different to other cyclists
