Kennaugh selected for Vuelta

 

Team Sky has released its team for the Vuelta a Espana, and Peter Kennaugh has been included.

The Manxman was frustrated at being left out of the Tour de France lineup a couple of months ago, particularly as he'd just won the British national road race title.

He's since won the Tour of Austria, and picked up a silver medal for the Isle of Man on the track at the Commonwealth Games.

Now, he once again gets to show what he can do in one of cycling's Grand Tours, as he's part of a team charged with helping Chris Froome win the general classification at the Vuelta.
