Fer I have also read the article but there is something that I lose. They are a great team, I follow them, I was commenting that it would be a good gift that would raffle among all the DT a training with them, hahaha. This is my question, on Facebook I have Juan Pablo Gonzalez Aguilera, about 19 years old and Francisco Carratala Jorda of about 20 years, and they are not named by the article. Seeing their colors only put my hair what they do when I see them pedaling. If it is wrong, you know that you have total authorization about my writings, to modify, delete or whatever.
