Nairo Quintana Documentary – A Rider From Humble Beginnings in Colombia

June 23, 2016 by Adam Farabaugh

nairo quintana

With the Tour de France so close, the favorites are starting to fall into the spotlight. One of the young favorites and arguably the best climber in the world is Nairo Quintana from Tunja, Colombia, the highest town in the country at 2820 meters (9250 feet). This EuroSport Documentary shows where he comes from in Colombia and just how big cycling is there. It then follows his track into racing and how he found a bit of success early and then started to get really good while still at a very young age. As one of the sports top riders he is a well respected and loved national icon in Colombia. (You know someone is a national hero when they have songs after them.) He gives hope to the people of Colombia who are seeking peace. His track is what people dream of and want to emulate. The documentary is one to watch before the Tour sets off. Knowing who the actual riders are makes for greater viewing as it’s not just people riding bikes, its individuals from all sorts of backgrounds the world over with incredible stories of how they reached the pinnacle of the sport. Let us know what you think of the documentary and how you think he will do in the Tour.
