Sorry, I don't speak Spanish.

El Triki is how Cookie Monster is known on the Spanish Sesame Street
(Barrio Sésamo).

¿But do we know that Beltran's knickname comes from Cookie Monster's
Spanish name? If so, that's even cooler than the Canibal or the Badger.

"Manuel Beltran earned the nickname 'Triki' because of his weakness
for cookies. El Triki is the Spanish version of 'Cookie Monster' on
Sesame Street. Few people call him Manuel, and in 2004 his leader's
jersey at the Vuelta a Espana had El Triki printed on it. Despite the
fact that he consumes more cookies and olive oil than the rest of us, he
is by far the skinniest rider on the team."

I guess that's one way T-Mobile can beat Discovery to the yellow.
