Igor targets Tour


Igor will, as predicted on this site, aim for the Tour de France next season. As Samu will take a pass on the event to focus on winning the two most important Vueltas, that of the País Vasco and España, the team's other two GC riders Igor and Mikel will focus on the Grand Boucle. "Yes, he'll got the Tour", Galdeano said of Igor at Euskaltel's camp in Derio. "Since Samu will be focusing on winning the País Vasco and the Vuelta a España, Antón will ride the Tour. He'll be there mainly to win a stage, but we're not ruling out going for the GC either." As for Astarloza, he said: "With Astarloza we hope to obtain a triumph before going to the Tour. We can't pin everything on the that race". Good news indeed.
