There had been talk that this team would also include Sergio Higuita and Daniel Martínez, who are part of the team bora, but this is not so confirmed.
TIME spoke with the Colombian Cycling Federationorganizer of the event, and confirmed that Higuita and Martínez are not guaranteed their presence in the Colombia Tour, since the Bora coaching staff has not delivered their 'letter of freedom' for them to start 2024 in their country.
Nothing has been confirmed and we are waiting for the final result, but if the runners do not compete in the competition there would be two big casualties.
