UAE Team Emirates Training Camp Gallery

PeloPic: Early training camp season is upon us. The South of France, Mallorca and the Costa Blanca are the usual favourite places for the riders, but UAE Team Emirates have taken themselves to the Italian Isle of Sicily and the roads of Syracuse, or Siracusa if you prefer.

They had a media day earlier at the weekend and this is what it looked like:
