- On 13 February 2008, the organizer of the Tour de France, the Amaury Sport Organisation, announced that Astana would not be invited to any of their events in 2008 due to the doping previously perpetrated by Astana, despite the fact that its management and most of its ridership had changed before the 2008 season.Consequently, Alberto Contador was unable to defend his 2007 Paris-Nice and 2007 Tour de France victories. He went on to win his second Vuelta a Castilla y León, as well as the Tour of the Basque Country by winning the opening stage and the final individual time trial. His next scheduled race and objective was the Dauphiné Libéré but his team received an invite to the 2008 Giro d'Italia one week prior to the start of the race. Alberto was on a beach in Spain when he was told he was going to ride the Giro. Despite the lack of preparation, he finished second in the first individual time trial and took the pink jersey after the 15th stage up to Passo Fedaia. Upon winning the final pink jersey in Milan, he became the first non-Italian to win the Giro d'Italia since Pavel Tonkov in 1996 and also the second Spanish rider to win the Giro after Miguel Indurain won in 1992 and 1993. He later emphasized the importance of this win by saying that "taking part in the Giro and winning it was a really big achievement, bigger than if I'd had a second victory in the Tour de France".

Great video editing Ted Niki .. I like it when the video goes in harmony with the music
The special effects were awesome as well
So pleased to hear this from you. Thank you!
Sou fã de Alberto contador ...mais também de lancearmistron e alberto desleau com lance pq era muito mais novo e mesmo assim deixou lance pra traz
Great ! How do you find such good quality of images ?
Thanks! If you mean those photos at the beginning of the video, I just google them and set the image search setting in a way that gives me only high resolution images as search result. I also search flickr.com where you can find some photos that can't be found by google.
Ted Niki no sorry i meant the quality of the videos because on the other youtube videos the quality is very bad which is normal as 2008 is quite a long Time ago now
I mostly get the original videos from UA-cam. You can find some relatively high quality videos in Channels like 'Steven Even' or 'Cycling Memories'.
