Around Cologne UCI 1.1: Team EUROBIKE Vorarlberg as the best Continental Team in touch with the world’s best – Konychev and Rüegg in 25th and 26th place
BE PINK-YELLOW – Team Vorarlberg in step with the Giro d`Italia!
Team Vorarlberg caused at least as much of a stir at Germany’s oldest cycling classic as the big teams from BORA-hansgrohe, Alpecin-Deceuninck, Team Visma etc., all worth millions. The seven Vorarlberg pros presented themselves uniquely for this appearance in the new, fresh “EUROBIKE – Team Design”. The many thousands of fans were simply thrilled by this performance!

DSM Firmenich wins – Team Vorarlberg best UCI Continental Team
On the sporting side: The 106th edition of Rund um Köln over a difficult 195 kilometers and 2400 meters of altitude through the Bergisches Land, also this year with top speed: in the end it was over 44 Km/h as an hourly average. None of Team Vorarlberg made it into the leading group of the day. But Lukas Meiler and Co. were able to take the initiative in the finale. Every attack was parried by the World Tour teams.
The big teams had everything under control. The Dutchman Casper van Uden (DSM Firmendich) won the bunch sprint. Second was Biniam Girmay (Intermache-Wanty) ahead of Louis Blouwe (Bingoal WB). Alexander Konychev was the best UCI Continental rider in 25th place, with Lukas Rüegg immediately behind in 26th.
Team Vorarlberg once again showed its class today – and the team is looking forward to the next races.
