German road cycling championships
The German Road Cycling Championships take place annually and are hosted by the Association of German Cyclists . Competitions in road races , individual time trials and the German mountain championships are organized .
The profile of the road racing tracks differs from year to year, so that sprinters , but also rouleurs, have a chance to become German champions one day. The races are usually held on a circuit , so that the same route has to be driven several times. Road races and time trials sometimes take place in different locations.
In the years 1914–1918, 1926/27, 1929–1933 and 1942–1945, the men's professional championships were not held, in 1973 the championship had to be canceled. In the years 1974 to 1986 the championships for professionals took place as a three-nation championship together with the Swiss and Luxembourg drivers and from 1987 to 1994 with the Swiss and Liechtenstein drivers. When designing the championship jersey (white with black, red and gold chest stripes), the wearer and his sponsor have all freedom. The jersey can be adapted to the sponsor's lettering. It should be noted, however, that the German road champion may only wear his jersey for road races and the individual time trial champion may only wear his jersey for individual time trials.
From 1992 to 2004, the men's road championship title was won exclusively by drivers from the Telekom and T-Mobile teams . Only Gerald Ciolek was able to break the series in 2005.
