A young rider like me dreams of being in the Spanish team par excellence, a place where so many great riders have passed through."
Carlos Canal has high expectations for his future with the team, and is willing to work hard and put his best effort at the team's disposal. He also has his sights set on the classics, where he hopes to shine next season.
