Demi Vollering to lead Team SD Worx in Ceratizit Challenge - "The legs feel good again in training"

Team SD Worx has revealed its lineup for the Ceratizit Challenge, which is set to begin on the 7th of September. Demi Vollering will be leading the team.

This will be Vollering’s first race since the Tour of Scandinavia. "I had to take it easy for a fortnight, but in the meantime, I can go full gass ahead in training. My form was excellent. Normally, you don't lose that in a fortnight. The legs feel good again in training, but of course we have to wait and see how that will be in a race,” said Vollering.

Vollering also thinks the tour is a perfect warm-up for World Championships. “This is the ideal warming up. A five-day stage race at this point in the season is perfect and the course is challenging. It is important to do a good team time trial on the first day and preferably pick up some time there. With Marlen Reusser, we already have an important weapon for the TTT. She will certainly have her sights set on it," concludes Vollering.

Marlen Reusser secured the second position last year, and she is determined to give her best and support Vollering. Lotte Kopecky is a force to be reckoned with, she is responsible for sprints and possible breakaways.

Team SD Worx for Ceratizit Challenge: Marlen Reusser, Lotte Kopecky, Anna Shackley, Niamh Fisher-Black, Blanka Vas, and Demi Vollering.
