!FELIZ CUMPLEANOS CAMPEON!
El 27 de énero cumplirás un año más pero eres todavía muy joven que sea fisicamente y mentalmente . Que tus treinta y seis años sean intensos, llenos de aprendizajes, de alegrías compartidas y de mucha complicidad con la vida.
Un abrazo muy fuerte.
Hasta pronto en Venecia.
Cristina y Roger
Best wishes on your birthday. After the TdU, I hope you are not too tired and sore to enjoy the day. Your many fans are thrilled that you are riding again this year. Good luck for the future.
Hola Amigo! Hope your safely back in Spain. Training here in Adelaide isn’t the same without you guys. Its going to be 41 degrees all week.
Have a great birthday Chechu you nearly as old as me!
Je vous souhaite un très bon anniversaire entouré des gens que vous aimez et qui vous aiment.
J’espère que cette dernière saison cycliste vous apportera plein de joies.
Wishing you a very, very, very happy birthday and all the best in the new year of your life – may it bring you health, happiness and many, many good kilometers on your bike.
It’s great that you’re coming to California. At Georgia last year, we thought we’d never see you on the bike again in the USA. We were sad. But now we’re happy.
happy birthday to you,enjoy the rest of the season.
me and my wife would like to try your restaurant in berkley,we live in sacramento,if you can give me some information i would appreciate it so much.
take care
Que dentro de muchos años…cuando ambos tengamos nietos, nos sentemos a compartir, aunque sea breve, un momento de amistad y de ilusión por los proyectos aún por realizar.
Sigue siendo tan fuerte de corazón y tan noble de espíritu. Los demás intentaremos animarte “wherever you run”.
Como me alegro de que hayas decidido continuar montar la bici. Para los aficionados en los Estados Unidos es raro poder ver a los ciclistas que seguimos por la red o las revistas profesionales.
Espero poder verte en Solvang y Santa Clarita en California si la cantidad de espectadores me permite.
Chechu, Congratulations on your great ride in the Tour of CA. I have always heard and read about how nice you are, but I proved last Tuesday at Sierra Road what an awesome chap you are. Riding in cold weather while rain is pouring and pacing a whole peloton up a steep climb is pretty hard.
But for you to make eye contact and acknowledge a fan screaming your name from the side of the road while climbing a steep road says a lot about how you truly appreciate the fan support. Some riders hardly acknowledge fans on the side of the road, which is why your simple acknowledgement on Tuesday’s stage proves what a pretty cool guy you are.
We have been longtime fans since we saw you in Postal in 2001. It was such a treat for us to watch you in California in 2008 because we thought we finally get to see you ride in person before you retired. It turned out to be an added bonus when you decide to not retire and once again ride in California this year.
More power to you. We can’t wait for your restaurant to open in Oakland. We will definitely be there as soon as it opens!
Bueno espero que todos los fans y amigos del Astana y de Chechu celebremos la Victoria de Lance en el Centenario del Giro.Chechu que tengas muchisima suerte que disfrutes mucho y a ser posible que nos des la alegria de verte ganando una etapa. Estaremos contigo todos los dias animandote frente al televisor.
Un abrazo.
So, so good to see you in the peloton on the roads of Italy (and in Lance’s videos). Thank you for not retiring and giving us another year (thank you too Laura for sharing Chechu with us).
it is so great to see you in the Giro peloton once again! I’m always glad when the camera can catch you working hard for your teammates! Thank you for your great efforts! I just can hope that you can find a stage to go for your own success! If not we – your fans – are still proud of you!
Take care, avoid crashes! Enjoy the race as much as possible!
Hello Chechu, We are presently watching the Giro live, thank you for all the fun and action in Lido di Jesolo, I have the bottle you gave me on my road bike and I am very proud to show it and tell how you gave it to me. I hope you complete the giro strong and well, regards from us here in Milton Keynes UK.
Hello Chechu, today your resting, the race on Monday was extreme, what a team you ride with Lance waits for Levi, while Yaroslav rides ahead, you all ride in support. I offer you my support and hope I will be able show my appreciation in Monaco. Best wishes, Ridestrong, Rest well. Ken
If has been a joy to watch you ride another Giro. 2 more stages and then some time off for you. Enjoy, you deserve it.
Loved seeing you in Lance’s video yesterday.
All over, thank you for the Giro 2009, I hope you enjoyed it as much as we the fans have. We look forward to seeing you riding in the Peleton soon, best wishes, Ken and Denise Hardacre
Chechu:
Mil gracias por tu generosidad en la carretera. Tuviste un fantástico Giro y esperaba volver a verte escoltando a tu líder en las montañas del Tour… ¿recuerdas Alpe D’Huez en 2001? Todos veían cómo Lance avanzaba sin cadena mientras el verdadero autor de la masacre perdía fuelle tras haberlo dado todo… Enhorabuena por tu trayectoria… espero verte capitaneando al Astana en la Vuelta… un saludo.
Jose Luis,
It is with great admiration that I find you still racing. You are truly one of the pillars of the peloton and in your capacity as equipier, probably never received what you truly deserved. I wish you all the best and kindest regards in your future and I will continue to follow your career.
Buena suerte en su futuro y que Dios le bendiga.
The Vuelta is here. A new race and a new day, we wish you health and strength, we the Milton Keynes fans salute your effort and loyalty, please accept our support. whatever the next year brings us, may it be good for us all. Ride well, we hope you finish well.
Que tengas mucha suerte esta temporada y disfrutes celebrando muchas victorias junto a esos campeones que tienes de compañeros

Hi
Happy Birthday. What a wonderful month January is for birthdays–mine is the 18th.
Congratulations on the team success at the TDU. My husband and I attended and cheered for Astana as you rode by us.
I will look forward to seeing all of you at the TOC later this month. I live in San Jose, CA and will be able to see a few of the stages.
Hi Nicky
You may remember me. I entered a contest and won some postcard photos of Chechu last year.

Chechu fenomenal en California. Astana puede estar contento de tener los mejores cilistas,los mejores gregarios y el lujo de contar con Chechu Rubiera
