Movistar snaps up climbing talent Roson
Movistar has announced the signing of up and coming climbing talent Jaime Roson from Caja Rural-Seguros RGA. The 24-year-old has penned a two-year deal, ensuring a place at the Spanish outfit until at least the end of 2019.
Roson, a former under 23 national champion, turned professional last season with Caja Rural. He quickly impressed with a top 5 finish at the Vuelta a Castilla y Leon and a stage win at the Tour of Turkey. This year, he won the queen stage of the Tour of Croatia and went on to finish second overall and the winner of the mountains classification.
Roson is currently competing at the Vuelta a Burgos where he sits 15th overall after two stages.

Senni steps down from BMC to join Bardiani-CSF
Manuel Senni will ride in the Pro-Continental ranks with Bardiani-CSF for the next two years, ending his three year stay with BMC Racing.
"We really wanted and looked to have Manuel in our roster for 2018. He's a young rider but already experienced and his rider profile is perfect for the #GreenTeam project. Year after year he showed to have the right potentiality to stand out. Becoming professional and riding three years in a top team such as BMC is not a chance for everyone. We didn't offer him just a contract but, above all, an opportunity. Manuel has a lot of ambitions, our team too: we're happy and ready to pursue the same goals," read a statement from Bardiani-CSF.
