González jumps ships

Standout Basque amateur rider Aitor González will make the switch to Lizarte for the upcoming season.

The native of Ermua, the hometown of Aitor Galdós and Igor Astarloa to name but two distinguished pros, showed considerable promise throughout 2012, leading the Torneo Lehendakari for much of the year before losing it to Naturgas' Imanol Estévez in the last race in Oñati. The current Euskadi sub-23 road race champion will leave his home of four years, Debabarrena, to team up with the guys in pink over at Lizarte, a press release reads.

22-year-old González is the eighth new arrival announced by the team, the others being Miguel Ángel Aguilera, Mikel Azcoiti, Mikel Ezkieta, Julián Gómez, Imanol Lafuente, Raul Martínez de Morentin and Luis Pascual.
