I would not mind this as long as Spanish riders can compete in it ( get a grounding for Cobbled races in Belgium ), the route is nice and the financial aspects are taken care of.

Could be a really good testing race for spaniards...

Would love to see this happen at Pro level, but with current cliamte I seriously can't see it, especially in Spain now.

At the moment just a Sportive, but we hope be professional as soon is posible

 

[Caruut]

Get it done before Flecha throws in the towel, at least.

It´s gonna be difficult, maybe he could help us when he is retired (Pedro Horrillo is already doing it)

Izaguirre brothers could be the handover to Flecha

 

[rantanplan]

Pedro Horrillo is going to be our Special Guess this year

Sounds nice, difficult to choose tires with such varied terrain I think.

Hence the attraction of this style of racing for some of us.

I genuinely don't want to see anyone hurt doing this kind of racing, but the dirt roads are a great "act of god" feature.

Simply, for me dirt roads are god, pure cycling

We want to convert next year GP Canal de Castilla in a more internacional sportive.

¿Who could be the ideal guess for the next year to achieve that?

(this year is Pedro Horrillo)

How about a past winner of Paris Roubaix and Tro Bro Leon (which I think is a better fit as your sister race) - Freddie Guesdon?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Guesdon would be great. A real world class guest of honour. Also, how about Mr. Break Of The Day at Roubaix, José Vicente García Acosta?

 

[burning]

Flecha might be great as well

Not yet, because he is still campetiting and it´s not esay to bring here

I didn´t know he won Tro Bro Leon! Thanks!

Txente García Acosta maybe in two years, next year we are looking for a international star.
