Gerdemann, Fröhlinger OK for Milan-San Remo start

Milram’s Linus Gerdemann and Johannes Fröhlinger, who each left Paris-Nice will illness last week, will return to racing at Milan-San Remo, the team announced Wednesday.

“Linus could be a surprise (at Milan-San Remo),“ said Christian Henn, who together with Vittorio Algeri will direct the team at the race.  “He won a stage with a similar profile at Tirreno-Adriatico, even if the stage was only half as long as here. And Luke Roberts is also in good form. When everything works out, he can be near the front of such a long and challenging race. Basically, we have a team that is good for a surprise, and we have no pressure on us because of all the riders missing due to injuries.“

Milram’s Fabian Wegmann will miss the race due to a broken collarbone, while Gerald Ciolek is recovering from a shoulder operation.  Ciolek is currently at an altitude training camp doing cross-country skiing and rehabilitation exercises, the team said.

Team Milram at Milan-San Remo:

Markus Fothen, Johannes Fröhlinger, Linus Gerdemann, Christian Knees, Luke Roberts, Roy Sentjens, Niki Terpstra, Paul Voß.

Directeurs Sportif:  Vittorio Algeri and Christian Henn.
