Leben out with broken elbow

The new German professional team, Weisenhof-Akud, will have to start the season without Christian Leben. The 20-year-old was mountain biking with his training partner, Rabobank's Grischa Niermann, when his bike slipped in a muddy rut and he fell on his arm. The result? A broken elbow and a delayed start for this season.
