Team Barloworld will be racing Sunday's Paris-Roubaix, their fourth ProTour race of the season with Baden Cooke looking to be in the thick of action on Sunday.
He will be joined by Patrick Calcagni, Robert Hunter, Paolo Longo Borghini, Christopher Froome, Daryl Impey, Carlo Scognamiglio and Marco Corti.
Patrick Calcagni, fresh from his GP Pino Cerami win, jokingly commented on the upcoming race, "I don't win a lot and who knows when it'll happen again, so please take a lot of photographs. I have felt good recently and I'm happy to have won for both myself and for the team. I'm convinced we can do well at Paris-Roubaix."
"The team is motivated to do well after winning two races during their long stay in northern Europe and we are hoping for a prestigious third win," said Team Manager Claudio Corti.
