EQUIPO KERN PHARMA

Possibly the most anticipated debut of Spanish cycling in recent years was that of Kern Pharma in La Vuelta 22. The Galibier Cycling Association, founded in 1993, has produced some of the best Spanish cyclists over the years, including Joseba Beloki, Isidro Nozal, Andrey Amador, Marc Soler and Richard Carapaz, among others.  

Sponsored by Lizarte in its amateur team for the past few decades, the association made the leap to professionalism with the creation of a Continental team in 2020. In just one year, it managed to obtain a ProTeam licence in 2021.  

Without losing the character of a training squad, Team Kern Pharma has the third youngest average age in the second category of cycling. This youth, however, does not prevent them from obtaining victories, besides their usual Most Combative Rider wins. They return to La Vuelta with the desire to continue demonstrating their combative character.
