Figueras ready for the rhythm of racing

Lampre-Caffita reports that the flu which Giuliano Figueras picked up before Tirreno-Adriatico, causing him to miss the event, has come and gone, and he is now motivated to get back into racing, starting with Milan-San Remo this Saturday.

"I got back into training and I seem to have found the right rhythm needed for racing," said Figueras. "I did some training in Campania where I was fortunate to train in some good weather; Wednesday, I got a good 250 kilometre training ride in, and I think that the form I had at the GP Chiasso is on its way back and I am feeling good, both physically and mentally. I doubt I will have the condition of those who have just raced Tirreno-Adriatico and Paris-Nice, but I am sure I will have a good San Remo."
