Paternina Professional Cycling Team (Spain) - 2000-2004

Paternina is a highly regarded (and expensive) Spanish wine, Jazztel (team clothing), and Costa de Almeria (Spanish Tourist Office). Bikes were either Orbea or Krups

The wine was (and still is) top tier but the jury was out on the team itself. It was very much all about Marino Lajarreta who was the Tour rider of considerable talent (rode everything, raced everywhere and regularly won when things got hilly). ably supported by aussies Hodge & Stephens. Dick Dekker (Netherlands) was the designated sprinter but it was a blank results canvas beyond that.
