Mikel gearing up for Ardennes Classics

Mikel today confirmed to el Diario Vasco his upcoming races. He will as expected take part in the Amstel Gold Race, the Fleche Wallonne and the Liège-Bastogne-Liège. He'll of course lead the team and, considering his great showing in País Vasco, I'm hoping for some top 10s in all these races. After these Classics he'll take some time off to recuperate before returning to competition in the Dauphiné Libéré. Here he'll hone his form for his second season-goal, the Tour de France.
