Astana's Pello Bilbao has been surprised with a celebration for his 2019 Giro d'Italia performance in his home city, Guernica.
The rider commented that he went out for a walk with his girlfriend in his hometown after returning from Italy and he was surprised with a big party in his honour. Friends, family and the inhabitants of the city got together in the Spanish city and with music and dances celebrated the work of the rider.
Bilbao took two stage victories in the seventh and 20th stages of the Giro d'Italia -his first wins in a grand tour-, finished in the 31st overall position and was a key supporter for Miguel Angel Lopez, who topped the Youth classification and finished in the seventh GC place.
