Tim Torn Teutenberg will enter the professional ranks with Lidl-Trek next season. The Teutenberg family is far from new in the cycling echelons with father, uncle, sister, and aunt (currently DS at Lidl-Trek) all known personalities within the peloton. And Tim is on more than a good way to follow in their footsteps with European title from Omnium and victory at the U23 Paris-Roubaix, among other wins this year.
"My first year in the Lidl-Trek structure has been really nice so far, really successful with a really nice group in the devo team. It’s a lot of fun and I think we all felt welcomed into the wider team. I’m really excited to step up, I think everyone riding at this level is dreaming about becoming a World Tour rider, and I’m really excited for the upcoming two years," he expressed in a press release.

"This year I’ve learnt that it’s good to be patient, and that some things take time. Maybe now in the World Tour it may take some time to adapt to the level but hopefully at some point it will come, but I just have to be patient and go step by step. As I step up, I hope to learn from the other guys, clever and strong riders like Mads Pedersen who I can learn a lot from."
Finally, Teutenberg notes that he'd like to match comets of this sprint Luke Lamperti and Paul Magnier and have a breakthrough entrance to the professional ranks too. "It would also be nice to take some good results for myself. If I can continue my path as it is now, that would be nice, but I’m not expecting it to be easy. First of all, I’m just looking to have a good start into World Tour life," he concluded.
At Lidl-Trek, they're of course more than happy to welcome a first graduee of their newly-founded Development team. "It will be special that Tim is the first rider to pass from the development team to the World Tour," emphasized Project Manager Markel Irizar. Ultimately, Tim Torn Teutenberg doesn't necessarily have to be the last new professional coming from Lidl-Trek's DT with riders like Mats Wenzel and Jakob Söderqvist loudly banging to the doors too.

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
