Abraham Olano Manzano is a former professional cyclist from Spain. He gained limited fame in 1995 when he became World Road Champion and in 1998 he won the World Time Trial Championship. An under-achieving stage racer, Olano was only able to place third in the Giro d'Italia in 1996 and second in 2001, even though he won a depleted Vuelta a España in 1998. He also won some other smaller stage races. In November 2006 he ran the San Sebastian marathon in a time of 2:39:19. Wikipedia
