Juan Ayuso may be only twenty years old himself, but the Spaniard is already coming with his own youth team. With the help of the Fundación Ayuso foundation, the UAE Emirates rider hopes to prepare young talented riders from the province of Valencia for the big job, Spanish sports website Relevo reports.
Ayuso, who will celebrate his 21st birthday in just over two weeks, is already thinking about the future of Spanish cycling at a very young age. His training team will be built up from a foundation called Fundación Ayuso. This foundation not only looks at cycling, but also wants to commit itself to other (social) areas.

The youth team will operate from the Valencia region and next year will mainly contest regional and national competitions, with the occasional trip across the Spanish border. According to Relevo, Ayuso has already put together a selection and has already filled the places within the technical staff.
Ayuso thus follows in the footsteps of compatriots Alberto Contador and Alejandro Valverde. The two - now retired - Spanish cycling greats decided a few years ago to each set up their own foundation and youth team. For example, Valverde is now at the head of two U21 teams, one for the women and the men.

- Of course he CAN. Big salary in cycling is not when you win but when they talk about you (and your team / sponsors). For every news about Jonas, MVdP or Wout there are 10 times more(!) news about Pidcock (like everyday for last 2 months?). Since cycling is advertising sport not competitive sport (in terms of from money comes from) Pidcock is winner and GOAT - change my mind. ;-)averagecyclist18-11-2024
- Why do the women CXs keep getting short changed with the length of theor races? They could have easily done another lap to put them at 50 minutes which is their time limit. Yet another CX race where they fail to reach this when they had a chance to. Come on ... the math isn't that hard to figure out lap times and divide into 50 min!frieders318-11-2024
- All pro cyclists are massively underpaid! The amount of riding and physical exertion they put their bodies through is crazy compared to other sports. I can't think of any other sport where you are physically active at a very high level of power output for hours on end each day.Pogboom17-11-2024
- When I was working for Starkist/Heinz my manager quit. So the next week my group was put under another manager. During our first meeting he asked if there was anything we needed to tell him. I said that I would be out the following week on vacation. He said "I don't know if I can let you go on vacation". I replied, "You can't tell if I can go. You can only tell me if I can come back".Sweep17-11-2024

- Pointless reporting. They are rivals, each tries their way to get their best result, with or without collaboration. As long as it’s all fair, why even report riders feelings about such stuff (yes I know, lack of other news). Anyone riding races will go through dozens of moments per race where they get emotional about the way someone else rides or takes advantage or doesn’t collaborate or more, it is natural, it is justified, it is NOT newsworthy!Mistermaumau17-11-2024
