American-based BMC Racing is aiming to bring world champion Cadel Evans overall victory at the Giro d’Italia this month, but the country’s only Pro Continental team will also be sending a powerful squad to the Amgen Tour of California in search of stage wins. Leading that team will be U.S. national champion George Hincapie.

Race organizer AEG Sports announced the starting rosters Friday for the 2010 Amgen Tour of California. The 16-team competition will include seven ProTour squads.

Sulzberger, Vzesniauskaite fly to uphill wins at Joe Martin; Amaran, Powers lead overall

In 2010 the spring classics season belonged to one rider, Saxo Bank’s Fabian Cancellara. Over the course of three weekends — E3 Prijs, the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix — Cancellara won three of the hardest one-day races in pro cycling, each time crossing the finish line alone against the best classics riders in the sport, and each time by a wider margin than the last. VeloNews managing editor Neal Rogers was on the ground in Belgium and Northern France to witness the Swiss rider’s domination and put it into perspective. VN tech editor Zack Vestal was also rattling along the cobblestones, and scored a shotgun seat in one of Mavic’s SSC Neutral Support cars at Roubaix. He came back with a memory card full of photos and war stories. Subscribe Now!
