Neben skips Equipe training camp

By Susan Westemeyer on Mallorca, Spain

World Time Trial Champion Amber Neben is not at the Equipe Nürnberger training camp on Mallorca, Spain. She chose to stay home and train in California, USA.

"There is no point in her leaving the warm weather in California for the cool winter weather here in Europe," said Equipe director Jochen Dornbusch. "She has trained there alone the last few years and then had successful seasons."

Neben will fly to Germany for the team presentation the beginning of March and then return to the USA for her season opener, the Redlands Classics later that month.
