Johan Bruyneel, manager of the new RadioShack team headlined by Lance Armstrong, has finalized a 2010 team roster that includes 16 riders from 16 countries. "It is a well balanced team," Bruyneel said of the team that will gather for the first time in Tucson, Arizona, in the second week of December."We have experienced riders - with some of them I worked already many years in my former teams - but we also have young talents who can develop in the perfect environment.
Seven-time Tour de France winner Armstrong announced the new team during the Tour de France. He finished third overall in the Tour while racing for Astana, his first participation in the race since securing his seventh yellow jersey in 2005, after which he retired. Armstrong said in August that winning an eighth Tour de France title is his goal.
