2017-12-19

Lucía González is the eleventh rider in the Bizkaia Durango-Euskadi Murias 2018 season roster, which will be completed with two more announcements in the following days.

Born in Viella in 1990, Lucía González has raced for the UCI Basque team Lointek, has a a really big experience in the international calendar. She’s a strong all-rounder who is usually very active in the races, being part of breakaways and performing important tasks for her teammates. She is also one of the best Spanish cyclo-cross riders, winner of the 2013 Spanish National Championship and several UCI races. Her last victory was in València, on Sunday. She is currently ranked 28th in the UCI international classification.

2018 will be a year of changes for me, as I have been competing for another Basque team in the last years. Sometimes changes are necessary and we must estimulate our bodies in order to progress. Bizkaia Durango-Euskadi Murias is a team which has been in the international peloton for many years, they have a great calendar and a young squad… so I believe I can provide the team with experience and race vision, and I will also look for my chances of shining. These days I am competing in the cyclo-cross season and I'm being quite successful, so I'm really looking forward to having a great road season, too.”
