Juan Guillermo Brunetta (born August 25, 1975 in Palmar del Lago,San Juan) is an Argentine professional racing cyclist. He's most famous because of his unusual size for a cyclist. He's 2.09 m. and 95 kg. (6'11 and 217 Ibs). Like most cyclists out of San Juan and its neighbouring state Córdoba, he started off as a track rider but has made the transition to the road and doesn't race as much on the track these days. He's been one of the best time trialists for the last 6 years in Argentina, but he has raced most of his road career in Uruguay with the Villa Teresa team with much succes, especially in the time trials. The last 2 years he's been racing in Argentina again.
