Andreas Klier (Munich, Germany) 32

Andreas is a super talent across the board of cycling disciplines. He is 17 time German Champion in events ranging from 500m on the track to the road race. After not such a good start to the season in 2007 due to some bad luck in the spring when he was in a training accident, he had a perfect end to the season with a win in stage 13 of the Vuelta. His strength lies in the Belgian classics where he knows every cobblestone, every corner and every situation. He won Gent Wevelgem in 2003.

Riding my bike gives me a feeling of freedom, but at the same time makes me feel that I am training for a special goal.

I like riding with Team High Road because I can really identify with the anti doping fight that the team takes on.
