Romain's 2010 plans
Igor González de Galdeano yesterday revealed Romain's races for the first part of the coming season. The precocious 22-year-old will start out with the Tour du Haut Var, and will look to do well in Paris-Nice after that. The Belgian Classics, namely Wevelgem, Vlaanderen, Roubaix and the Trois Jours de la Panne, are next up, before he'll tackle some Spanish races; Llodio, Asturias and Rioja. After that it's time for the Tour de Picardie, Bayern Rundfahrt and the Dauphiné, before the first part of his season comes to a close with the French National Championships. He'll not do the Tour, but I'm crossing my fingers he'll line up at the start of the Vuelta in Sevilla. Keep an eye on this amazingly gifted boy from Hazparne.

It'll be very interesting to see what he can do! Surely he must be the most talented French rider in years! Not to say most talented Basque rider since Indurain!
He's no doubt gifted, but maybe "most talented Basque rider since Indurain" was a bit of an exaggeration;) There's been Haimar, Iban, Beloki, Antón since Miguel just to name a few:)I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do in races like Paris-Nice and Dauphiné though!
I'd say his definitely in the same class as all of the mentioned riders ;) How good a young rider will turn out is always hard to say though. You never now, but I have high hopes for this one :) (although we can't expect to much already in 2010)
