  • Summary

  • Angelo Furlan is a sprinting legend. In the early 2000's until 2013 Furlan was racking up big wins in the European cycling world. It was a time where Mario Cipollini, Alessandro Petacchi to Robbie McEwen were winning races at will. Furlan beat all three in races. 

    Injuries in BMX is what led Furlan to road racing. Furlan raced BMX when Italy only had 10 tracks and about a thousand riders. He was no slouch whatsoever. He was European Champion, Italian Champion and he won more or less than 100 races.

    During his road career he won races like stage 2 of the 2009 Criterium de Dauphine, 2 stages in 2002 Vuelta a Espana and stages in the Etoile de Besseges , Circuit de la Sarthe to the Tour de Serbia and Coppa Bernoochi. He finished his career in 2013 with Christina Watches - Ofone after riding for such teams as Alessio, Domino Vacant, Lampre to Credit Agricole.

    Today at 46 years old Furlan runs his own cycling center "Angelo Furlan 360" with indoor cycling, coaching to bike fitting.
