The Relax-GAM Pro continental team has already signed ten riders for the next season 2007. Suarez Cuevas, the team's director and manager, has renewed with Jorge Garcia, Jose Rafael Martinez, Ángel Vallejo, Daniel Moreno, Óscar García, José Terciado and Jose Miguel Elías. The Spanish squad has added to their ranks Joaquin Sobrino, Julian Sanchez Pimienta (Comunidad Valenciana) and Raul Garcia. Relax GAM will be completed with four or six more riders. Currently there are about forty Spanish riders without contracts for 2007.

Relax-GAM made themselves know during the last Vuelta, in which it took part through a 'wild-card' selection from Unipublic. The team's aggressive performance in that event, where the team was represented in nearly every breakaway, inspired its sponsors to commit for one more season.
