Seguros Bilbao recruit ex-Euskaltel riders

Highly successful Basque outfit Seguros Bilbao have recruited two former Euskaltel riders and one from Orbea to work as sport directors at the team for the next few years. The latter is Julen Zubero, son of former pro Luiz Zubero and a close friend of Ibán Mayo's. Unai Uribarri, who's competed for both Orbea, Euskaltel and then Orbea again, has also been appointed, and so too has former Euskaltel and Banesto stalwart César Solaun, now 41 years old.
