Eddy Merckx Montage

Eddy Merckx won the Giro d'Italia five times. This excellent video montage shows Merckx in action, including several clips from the Giro. Music by? It's perfect. (note: SpinDoctor left this comment regarding the music, "Music is by Clint Mansell; from the Darren Aronofsky film Requiem for a Dream. He also did Smokin' Aces and The Fountain. Excellent usage here!")
