French Continental team Agritubel is gearing up to enter the ProTour, maybe as soon as next year. The budget of the squad will be increased from 2.8 million Euros to 4.5 in 2006. The team, which did not get a much-hoped-for Tour de France wildcard this year, plans to expand its roster to 21 riders, including "some big names," according to team manager David Fornes.
