Alan Marangoni meets former team mate, two-time Giro d’Italia winner, and cycling legend; Ivan Basso, to learn more about a career that scaled the highest highs and lowest lows.

‘Ivan the Terrible’ was one of the great all-rounders of the noughties peloton, twice finishing on the podium of the Tour de France and taking more than 30 career victories. In the later part of his career, he raced with Alberto Contador, forging a friendship which led to their ownership of the Eolo-Kometa professional team.

We hear from a fellow legend, Alberto Contador, while Alan and Ivan go blueberry picking on his farm before heading out to race up the local climbs. It is an intimate, honest portrait of an Italian cycling icon.
