Sun, gravel and strong legs:<\/strong> At the Giro Sardegna Gravel<\/strong> in Sardinia, the PROTECTIVE Factory Gravel Team<\/strong> put in a great race and collected valuable experience as well as UCI points.<\/p>\n Lea Kremsreiter, Tim Wollenberg, Luca Dressler <\/strong>and Andreas Schrottenbaum<\/strong> took on the challenge of a 120 kilometre course with 1,600 metres of climbing and many technical difficulties. Even the first kilometres on the coast were a real challenge: deep holes, hidden stones and puddles caused a quick selection in the field.<\/p>\n The pace was high from the start. Shortly after the start a lead group formed, with Tim Wollenberg at the front together with the two Speed Company Racing riders, Georg Egger and Lukas Baum. After about 70 kilometres Egger had bad luck with a mechanical and Tim was left riding with Lukas only. Tim cleverly relied on his sprinting strength, and it paid off: in a gripping finale he took his first UCI Gravel World Series victory. A great success for Tim and the whole team!<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\nTim Wollenberg Sprints to Victory<\/h4>\n
