La Ruta de los Conquistadores
Who will be the Next Conquistador?
31.10.2007
Two editions have passed since the last time a Costa Rican competitor won it, so the locals will put all their efforts into recovering what was theirs during the first 12 years. To do so they will have to beat pro racers with outstanding international results and world rankings. The fame they have gained puts them on the favourites list to win this year.
This is the confirmed “pro� list of racers who will try to conquer the 2007’s La Ruta de los Conquistadores.
