Cycling: Only recently we reported on the partnership between the Swedish manufacturer POC and Team Stölting. Now the UCI Continental Team has officially presented itself to the public.
In the "Zoom Erlebniswelt" in Gelsenkirchen, Karsten Kigels - well known to many as an expert from Eurosport - moderated the team presentation. In 2014, Team Stölting was the best German Continental team and this achievement needs to be repeated - at least! New and old sponsors such as the North German bicycle manufacturer Stevens, POC or Schwalbe should help with this.
The 2015 team is led by its captain Silvio Herklotz, U23 champion from 2013, who will receive active support from junior time trial world champion Lennard Kämna. The team with its 14 athletes under the athletic direction of their trainer Jochen Hahn is characterized by a good balance between experience and young talent. The team formulated four major goals for 2015:
1. Placements in day classics and state tours
2. Integration of new well-known sponsors for the next goals in 2016
3. Long-term project: expansion of the sponsor pool
4. Dual system for professionals: Entry into professional life at the Stölting Service Group at the end of your career
We wish the team every success in the upcoming season!
