2013: after a 6 year mission sevilla finally achieved it with tailor made courses for him. this year will be different with no real flat itt in it and a ttt in which I doubt his team can win.

important names/gc riders in bold

pls note that the best u23 riders like miguel angel lopez, rodrigo contreras and others aren't riding because they are preparing for avenir.
 
Should be great fun. Surprised you've not highlighted Felix El Gato, and as they've not been highlighted I assume Colorado and Ospina have been in chronic form of late?

Key stages:

Stage 3:
2vazfoj.jpg


Stage 8:
f3tlas.jpg


(MTF at Plaza de Toros de Manizales)

Stage 9:
33xdbmr.jpg


(finish straight off the descent of the ESP-category Alto de Minas)

Stage 10:
1q0bh0.jpg


(Alto de las Palmas MTT).

The official profiles have not adjusted themselves for scale, so a nasty looking stage like stage 4 is in fact a flat stage with a few cat.3 climbs in the middle. Gustavo Duncán and Asier Bilbao have more realistic profiles at their site for those interested.

Just because of Rujano, Cardenas, Montaña, Suaza, Ortega and Cano you want to see this race!

Also curious to see if the guys from Coldeportes can make a impact against the other Colombian squads.

Cardenas is like Horner-old. Passport or not he can't be a contender forever.

He won't win indeed. Last year he already went down in the big mountain stages. But if you look at his results last year, it looks al little bit Like Sagan results in the first Tour week:p

Great to see Didier Chaparro on the start list. I know he isn't a interesting figure for GC, but i love the guy's name!;)

Victor Niño is almost as old (41y 4m), and returning from a doping suspension...yet has been featured as a star in Ryo's highlighting.

victor nino has never been suspended or caught on doping. don't know where you get that from. probably mistake him with his brothe rlibardo? who I think has been internally suspended for life in federation

that's because cardenas despite his age is still explosive and very technical and quite fast.

Libardo even test positive two times, and is indeed now suspended for life.

How is Rafael Infantino btw?

That's such a shame. Based on talent, i think he could be a big factor in European racing. Loved him last year winning three stages, the guy's got so much class.

How is Argiro Ospina doing btw? I can't find much results of him for Coldeportes-Claro this year.
 
Excited for the race, but also a little disappointed that a lot of strong U23 riders are not riding (due to Avenir preparation). Race should be in June like previous years.

Who is the biggest talent in Colombia at the moment btw? I think it is Miguel Ángel López, but perhaps i'm wrong.

Always hard to say, but if I had to name one I would also go with Miguel Angel Lopez. But you could also still call N Quintana a talent even though he already won a GT.
In the junior ranks Wilmar Paredes is making a big impression on me this year, he combines track with the road and is doing great on both. He is with the 4-72 Colombia junior team so guess he will ride for the 4-72 CT team next year were we might see him in some European races. He will also participate in the Junior worlds track in a few days, but for now it is hard to say how he compares to the Aussies and guys from GB, guess we ll know in a week :)!

Thx for the info. I also heard a lot of goods about Paredes. I follow him lately, also got big potential. I'm indeed talking more about the guys who still has to make the step to Europe (so guys like Jaramillo don't count anymore).

If you look at those category, the common names like Contreras, Suaza, Gavira come up in my mind.
