Wrolich ready and waiting

Peter Wrolich can hardly wait - in about 26 days, the World Championships open in his homeland of Austria, and he is more than ready. "In the last 14 days I have trained well and frequently, most of the time with Bernhard Eisel," he said. "The excitement is slowly growing, the countdown for the World's is running now for all of us."

The Gerolsteiner rider took a break from racing after the Tour de France. Training has brought him back to top form, and he is now looking at the following schedule to bring him up to the World's: "Next Sunday I'll ride the GP Ouest Plouay, where I was fifth last year. This year the route has been changed a little, but I still hope for a good result. After France, I will probably ride just one more race before the World's: either the Tour of Poland (September 4-10) or Rund um die Nürnberger Altstadt on September 10. The decision will be made the middle of next week, but I am tending more toward to Nürnberg."
