new interest in this team - seem to have been around a long time - but having checked not that long?? or in another guise?
they signed Kwiatkowski brothers in 2010 Radoslaw and Michal - one kept going - got Hugh Carthy now and some old burners ie David Arroyo
Any info

Seems a very strange set up from what I remember, riders on different group and wheel manufacturers etc.
But they usually "race" when they are in races so I like them.It's not so much about winning, I just hate losing.0 -
Always good value for plucky mountain breakaways. I'm a fan.Team My Man 2018: David gaudu, Pierre Latour, Romain Bardet, Thibaut pinot, Alexandre Geniez, Florian Senechal, Warren Barguil, Benoit Cosnefroy0

Hope not... He's a phenomenal prospect.0 -
I love these guys, always smashing it off the front in a breakaway. Ángel Madrazo is always good value (He was the crazy guy on secondment to Movistar in the 2013 Tour of Britain)0

Not a secondment - he rode with them as far back as the Caisse days. Bit of a dude.Team My Man 2018: David gaudu, Pierre Latour, Romain Bardet, Thibaut pinot, Alexandre Geniez, Florian Senechal, Warren Barguil, Benoit Cosnefroy0 -

Madrazo was amazing that Tour of Britain he was going for every jersey, every day!
I love the team, you can trace them back to being Caja Rural, then Paternina for a while (with Marino Lejaretta) and then through to today.
This gives a slightly different version of my memory...
