The following riders will definitely be in the line-up:
1) Ricardo Quaresma (Portugal) - 87-64-79, 61reg - the new co-captain, who just today decided to ride for Team Alkworld
2) Pablo Picasso (Spain) - 87-54-77 - the famous painter who this month didn't turn into a famous training hero
3) Oscar Romero (Colombia) - 63-83-80, 61 reg - the allrounder, who can be a pain in the ass for so many
4) Tupac Amaru (Peru) - 60-85-67, 64 reg - very fast and a lung like a horse
5) Antonio Narino (Colombia) - 48-83-50, 57 reg - the man for the first 100km each day
6) Luis Costales (Ecuador) - 63-78-68, 62 sprint - still young and cheap, but quickly improving
7) Jorge CarreraAndrade (Ecuador) - 61-79 - another "young and cheap, but quickly improving" guy
For the last two open spots, we consider various options:
- Salas + Alberto, really expensive, but possibly very successful
- Cabral + Alberto, more power for the long mountain stages
- Montalvo + Echevarria, a parasite and a cheapie
- etc.
Goals will be to have fun on the mountain stages, dominate the hilly sprints, if Salas is coming, and, if possible, go for the yellow jersey with one of the two captains. But a lot will depend on who else is there
