T-Mobile team for weekend

The T-Mobile Team is sending a six-man roster to this weekend's GP Triberg-Schwarzwald in Germany and the GP Kanton Aargau in Switzerland. On Saturday, Linus Gerdemann spearheads the magenta challenge in Germany's hilly Black Forest region.

The talented young German rider gave a demonstration of his climbing skills at the recent Volta a Catalunya where he finished sixth overall on a tough parcours, and he won't be short of a challenge when he lines up in Triberg on Saturday morning. The course takes the riders on seven 23.2 km loops, with a total 4,000 metres in elevation gain over a distance of 162.4 km; this roughly equals the demands of a tough mountain stage at the Tour de France.
