Ángel 'Litu' Gómez can finally smile again. On Wednesday, the last screws were removed that were put in after he fractured his arm in a crash on April 6, in the Ronde van Vlaanderen. "That was some good news. Now, I can start to race again, without a problem. I can do the Tour de Suisse, June 14. I have a big desire to put on a racing number again," the Saunier Duval rider said.
Gómez had asked his sports director to switch his program from the Euskal Bizikleta to the Tour de Suisse. "I proposed that to [Joxean Fernandez] Matxin and he accepted that. The Tour de Suisse is better as a Tour de France preparation, both for its date and the level of competitiveness."
