Joan Horrach Ripoll (born March 27, 1974) is a Spanish retired professional road racing cyclist.[2] He last rode for Madison Genesis.
Horrach's biggest win of his career was Stage 11 of the 2006 Giro d'Italia.[3] He won the stage by being in the break of the day and after making it to the final 3 riders he attacked as his companions crashed and held on to win by 5 seconds.[4] As a domestique for his leaders Horrach spent most of his career working for others, occasionally given the opportunity to ride for himself.[5]
After retiring he moved to Mallorca where he works as a Tour guide in Serra de Tramuntana on taking people on Mountain bikes, Road bikes and hiking.[6]
