Giovanni Visconti, Bio.

Born: 13th January 1983
Home: Turin, Italy

Explosive Italian Giovanni Visconti is a cyclist at the very top of the tree. The Turin native seemingly never runs out of energy, and his passionate and determined approach has won him as many admirers as it has trophies.

His domination of the Italian Road Race Championships has seen him rank among the very best in the world. His wins in 2007, 2010 and 2011 show that when he has the taste for victory, he usually gets the prize.

Visconti isn't just effective in his homeland either, and has also recorded victories in Spain, Turkey and Slovenia since he turned professional in 2005. Movistar signed him in time for the 2012 season in a deal that could prove one of the Spanish team's best ever signings.
