RRC Curve 24 Brackel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The cycling club "Curve 24" Dortmund-Brackel eV was a German cycling club from Dortmund - Brackel .

Since it was founded in 1924, the association has had many successful members in its ranks; the most successful was the world champion in the team pursuit of Leicester in 1970, Ernst Claußmeyer .

The club always attached great importance to the youth work. That is why Curve Brackel produced many successful school, youth and junior drivers from the 1960s onwards. For many years, talent promotion was carried out with the participation of the Geschwister-Scholl-Gesamtschule in Dortmund-Brackel, in which several hundred children were brought into contact with cycling, some of whom were also active in club sports.

At the end of 2015, the association dissolved because no successor could be found for the long-term chairman Günter Schäfer.

Events

The club traditionally organized the Great Westphalia Prize in Dortmund, which was held for the first time in 1924, on Ascension Day and, since 1958, the International Cycling Championship on the first Saturday in September .

Due to the requirements of the police, the Westphalia Prize , one of the most traditional cycling races in the Ruhr area, has been shortened so that the circular route in the east of Dortmund, which has to be crossed several times, is now only 8.9 instead of 25 kilometers in the 1970s and 1980s Was kilometers long.

The international cycling championship will take place in Dortmund- Brackel on a 1.2 km long race track. It took place on September 3rd, 2011 for the 55th time. The organizer is the RRC "Curve 24" Dortmund-Brackel eV The bike race that has been taking place since 1958 has won German champions, world champions and Olympic champions. In 2001 a race for prominent Dortmunders was also introduced. In the course of time, the importance of the celebrity race rose so high that in 2006 around 100 starters took part.

Every year in March, the club started the cycling season with its Brackel spring bike tour .
