Rock & Racing y Murcia se unen para continuar como Rock & Racing-Murcia
Hace algún tiempo el por entonces Contentpolis-AMPO-Murcia anunciaba a través de su propia página web su firme intención de “estar en las carreteras en 2010” y, a pesar de la retir...

Rock Racing-Murcia will become a multi (pro) Continental team and registerd in Spain as well.

It's registered in mexico as Continental (not Pro Continental), so they are hereby forced to have at least 50% Mexican riders.

Right.....

I hope those mexicans get used to not getting paid.

'Cause that's how Ball rolls, "innit"?

Half of the guys must be mexican, and the other half will be a mix between RR and ex Contentpolis-Murcia...sounds like many guys from the actuall RR team will be left without a team (considering also the rule about average age).

Floyd got in all those quality Bahama miles.I hope he doesn't have to spend to much time in Tiajunna getting his license. If he races at any level he will get his as s handed to him. Maybe the new team can fit their bus with some changing rooms and sell jeans at the races.

Rock has a good squad to give the PT boys some trouble. And I hope Landis can make Lance eat crow for talking **** on his attack at ATOC last year when he was fat and unmotivated.
 
Simoni?
However, Carera also stressed that both Rock Racing’s offer and that of Italian squad Lampre-NGC hinged on forthcoming UCI announcements about the teams’ status for 2010.

I haven't read that he has signed and CNs article, last month said it was dependent upon them getting a PC licence..........which they failed to secure.

Yep, you're right Chicken - he is in the mix, later this season, and was already linked to Murcia in November ... Kashechkin is another together with Rujano who is to say free after the Giro, as them Rockers are looking for a good mix for at least 2 grand tours it is.

Other rider options are also PT worthy weight at the moment, to realize a complete Euro program, more names will follow in the coming weeks, running up to the UCI date March, 31 ....
Gilberto Simoni did not sign with Lampre ![http://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/team.asp?year=2010&teamcode=LAM]

A huge surprise(s) is also to be expected in the co-team maneger spots as well as behind the wheel during the race

It's all about the 75th Vuelta A España and of course the new Rocky leader's jersey ... which Rocker will wear it first ...?

For a lot of them kids like Paco, Niño, Shark, Amish etc. it´s like coming home after been humiliated and abandoned in exile for more than 3 years ... enough is enough ... them boys are good boys

There is still a possibility that the team will even be upgraded to a much higher level during the season ... the first team to fail due to any kind of problem is seen as a serious option to move up to the premier league
