Euskaltel head to the US

As reported on www.fundacioneuskadi.com today, Haimar Zubeldia, Samu Sanchez and Igor Antón will head over the Atlantic Sea to improve their aerodynamics and TTing in the famous wind-tunnel in San Diego. Under the guidance of Igor Gonzalez de Galdeano, who was a very good TTer himself, they will leave Euskadi on the last day of November, and will run several tests in California for a few days. I think this is a brilliant initiative from Euskaltel. More and more riders are using wind-tunnels to improve their TTing skills, and it certainly helps. There is no reason why the Euskaltel leaders shouldn`t try them out as well, as Euskaltel and TTing hasn`t always been the best combination. If Haimar rediscovers his 2003 TTing, he might, just might, get a podium place in a GT one year. Samu and Igor are not bad at all either, as they`ve both shown this year, but there`s room for improvement.
