A mere 15 minutes into the second race on the first evening of the Munich six day, Lars Teutenberg's run in the event was suddenly over. The German was racing in the madison event with teammate Erik Weispfennig, when he found himself in a bad situation. Fellow German Andreas Beikirch touched wheels with another rider and fell. Teutenberg told Cyclingnews' Gregor Brown, "There was a wave up in the bunch and Beikirch hit the back wheel in front of him and felt left over directly in front of me. I hit him [at] around 55 km/h (SRM data) and started flying."
