Mikel, Igor and Rubén to lead in País Vasco

Euskaltel will go with a three-pronged attack at the Vuelta al País Vasco in April. Rubén, Mikel and Igor will all assume leadership duties in their quest to be the first Euskaltel rider to win the event since Iban in 2004. It's not been decided yet who'll fill up the remaining 5 spots on the roster. Galdeano told DEIA that a decision on who to fiel will only be taken after Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico, where the five strongest will get a place on the team. The race is, like every year, the team's season-highlight together with the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España.
