Juan Carlos Rojas, winner of the recent Vuelta a Costa Rica, will lead his country in the Tour de San Luis, Argentina.
King Juan Carlos is one of six riders who were summoned by coach Alexander Sandoval to join the National Team that will participate in the important American race which starts on January 18 and ends on January 24.
The other team members are César Rojas, Juan Carlos' brother and teammate at Frijoles Los Tierniticos-Arroz Halcón-Roes, Josue Gonzalez, Paul Betancourt (Coopenae-Extralum-Economy Rent a Car), Pablo Mudarra and Carlos Andres Brenes (BCR-Pizza Hut-Powerade).
Last Friday Juan Carlos Rojas took his fifth win in his home race by 17 seconds over Román Villalobos (Nestle-Giant-Courtyard Marriot). He had already won the race in 2005, 2010, 2013 and 2014.
Sandoval explains that the team will gather from January 7-10 in Katin hotel in Hermosa Beach, Garabito, Puntarenas, where they will work on their time trialling. The team will leave for Buenos Aires, capital of Argentina, on January 13.
