PreviewStarting on Monday, August 20 is the 23rd edition of the Vuelta a Burgos, a Spanish class 2.1 race that boasts a field comparable to a grand tour. Lance Armstrong (US Postal) will be making one of his final European appearances for the year, and together with teammate Roberto Heras he will be up against tour specialists Marco Pantani (Mercatone Uno), Alex Zülle and Fernando Escartin (Team Coast), Oscar Sevilla (Kelme) and the reconstructed Richard Virenque (Domo-Farm Frites). Many of these riders won't be in top form, but some will be using it as a tester for the Vuelta España, which starts in three weeks. Others to watch for include Alexandre Vinokourov (Telekom), Axel Merckx (Domo), Jon Odriozola and Jose Maria Jimenez (iBanesto), Santiago Botero (Kelme), Jose Azevedo (ONCE), Iban Mayo and Roberto Laiseka (Euskaltel), Manuel Beltran (Mapei) and Jose Luis Rubiera (US Postal) Start listiBanesto.com Kelme-Costa Blanca 1 Candido Barbosa (Por) 11 Oscar Sevilla (Spa) 2 Eladio Jimenez (Spa) 12 Juan José De Los Angeles (Spa) 3 Jose María Jimenez (Spa) 13 José Gutierrez (Spa) 4 Marzio Bruseghin (Ita) 14 Antonio Tauler (Spa) 5 Unai Osa (Spa) 15 Rafael Cardenas (Col) 6 Adolfo Garcia Quesada (Spa) 16 Francisco Cabello (Spa) 7 Santiago Blanco (Spa) 17 José Angel Vidal (Spa) 8 Juan Miguel Mercado (Spa) 18 Julian Usano (Spa) Mapei-Quick Step US Postal Service 21 Manuel Beltran (Spa) 31 Lance Armstrong (USA) 22 Elio Aggiano (Ita) 32 Roberto Heras (Spa) 23 David Cañada (Spa) 33 George Hincapie (USA) 24 Oscar Freire (Spa) 34 Steffen Kjaergaard (Nor) 25 Pedro Horrillo (Spa) 35 Levi Leipheimer (USA) 26 Andrea Tafi (Ita) 36 Victor Hugo Peña (Col) 27 Paolo Lanfranchi (Ita) 37 José Luis Rubiera (Spa) 28 Charles Wegelius (GBr) 38 David Zabriskie (USA) Euskaltel-Euskadi Jazztel-Costa del Almeria 41 Isasi.
