No Poland for Klöden

Andreas Klöden had planned a return to racing at the Tour of Poland from September 10 to 16 following a training crash that caused him to miss the GP Plouay.

"Of course I am disappointed," said Klöden in his newsletter. "However, despite this renewed setback, I will continue to work consistently in preparation for the World Championships," which will be held in Stuttgart September 23.

Klöden didn't break any bones in the accident, but reported he was suffering in his hip and was not able to stand while attempting to train soon after the accident.
