Miguel Indurain, Signed Tour de France Souvenir Leaders Jersey

$240.00

This jersey was made by Banesto after the Tour to give to team sponsors. This jersey has a nice inscription and bold signature from Indurain.

Miguel Indurain was spectacular on a bike. He rode in yellow for 60 days at the Tour de France.

Induráin won five consecutive Tours de France from 1991 to 1995, the fourth, and last, to win five times. He won the Giro d’Italia twice (1992 & 1993), becoming one of seven people to achieve the Giro-Tour double in the same season. Since the revoking of Lance Armstrong’s seven wins, he now holds the record for the most consecutive Tour de France wins and shares the record for most wins with Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, and Eddy Merckx.

Induráin’s ability and physical size—1.88 m (6 ft 2 in) and 80 kilograms (176 lb)—earned him the nickname “Big Mig”. He was the youngest rider ever to win the Spanish amateur national road championship when he was 18 at 20 the youngest rider to lead the Vuelta a España and at 20 he won a stage of the Tour de l’Avenir.
