Euskaltel and Euskadi set for weekend double-header

Euskaltel and Euskadi are both set to take part in two races this weekend; the Vuelta a Murcia and the Clásica de Almería.

It'll be a big weekend for Euskaltel captain Samuel Sánchez as he makes his first competitive appearance of the season, while Tarik Chaoufi is also in line to get his Euskaltel bow.

Euskadi will field much of the same riders that recently took part in the Challenge Mallorca, sending eight riders to both races.

Both teams will line up the same riders for both one-day races in the south of Spain.
