Erwin Hauck
Erwin Hauck (born April 23, 1909 , † November 28, 1970 in Giessen ) was a German cycling official and from 1959 to 1970 President of the Association of German Cyclists (BDR).
Erwin Hauck began his sporting career in 1923 as a cycling ball player and was multiple district and district champion until 1938. In 1938 he ended his active career. Until 1939 he was chairman of RV 1885 Gießen and district manager. He was then a soldier in World War II . After the war he continued his career as a functionary, initially from 1952 as 2nd chairman of the Hessian regional association of the BDR, from 1955 as its chairman and member of the BDR federal committee. In 1959 he became president of the BDR. In 1964 he became Vice President of the World Cycling Federation Union Cycliste Internationale and a year later a member of the Executive Committee of the Fédération Internationale Amateur de Cyclisme (FIAC).
During Hauck's tenure, the 1966 world championships on track and road and three indoor cycling world championships took place. He successfully restructured the BDR's coffers, was considered a “workhorse”, but also “dictatorial”. In 1967 he tried in vain to prevent women's races from being allowed by the BDR with the words: "As long as I am President here, there will be no racing for women in the BDR."
Before the Federal General Assembly in 1970 in Solingen , Erwin Hauck wanted to retire from the presidency for health reasons, but was persuaded to run again. At the UCI road world championships in 1970 in Leicester , he accused the German amateur drivers Dieter Koslar , Karl-Heinz Muddemann and Erwin Derlick of having doped themselves with the help of a doctor . The samples then taken were negative, and Hauck asked for his leave of absence as president until the end of 1970. In November 1970, the seriously ill Hauck died.
