He specialized in track racing . In the team pursuit , he won his first title at the German championships in 1965 with his club mates Karl-Heinz Henrichs , Klaus Kobusch and Herbert Honz . A year later, this four-man defended the title with an identical line-up. In 1967 these four drivers won the title again. No team in the history of German cycling had succeeded in this.
