Current marathon world champion Alban Lakata (Topeak Ergon) will return to the Trans Zollernalb mountain bike stage race in Germany on September 23-25. He will take on defending champion Hannes Genze (Multivan Merida) and his teammate Andreas Kugler. In 2010, Lakata finished third, but just one second behind Genze in the overall.
