The Caja Rural Seguros RGA, a Navarro team, has announced its octave for this year's edition of the Tour de France in a very curious way, providing cyclists with equipment in tribute to the historic structure in which they participated in the 1987 and 1988 Tours.

To live the illusion of participating in the Tour, Abel Balderstone, Fernando Gaviria, Sebastian Berwick, Alex, Molenaar, Jpel Nicolau, Stefano Oldani, Jakub Otruba and José Félix Parra have been chosen.
Thesports director of the Caja Rural, José Miguel Martínez , stressed that they now have a great opportunity to restore the confidence shown by the organizers of the Tour.
"Our participation in the Tour de France is a pride and we want to respond to the trust that the organizers have placed in us by doing our best at every stage and being true to our running style," the sports director said in statements released by the team.
