Moreno debuts with Movistar in Tour de San Luis
Daniel Moreno will make his debut as a Movistar rider at the Tour de San Luis in Argentina later this month and will build up to the Ardennes Classics in the first portion of the season, probably going on to ride the Tour de France in July.
The 34-year-old has set out his early-season calendar to Spanish website Biciciclismo, and it kicks off on January 18 in Argentina, where he lives during the winter, at the race he has done for the past three years. He will then return to Europe to ride the Vuelta a Murcia and the Vuelta a Andalucía in February, Tirreno-Adriatico in March, and the GP Miguel Indurain and Vuelta al País Vasco in April.

Then comes the major objective of the first half of the season - Amstel Gold, Flèche Wallonne, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège in late April, races where he'll be riding for Alejandro Valverde, and against his former team leader at Katusha Joaquim Rodríguez.
Moreno, who rode under Eusebio Unzué when the team was known as Caisse d'Epargne in 2008 and 2009, won Flèche in 2013 and has finished in the top 10 at Liège in each of the past two editions.
