Swiss Cycling sends 33 athletes to the European Championships
Swiss Cycling is represented at the continental summit in the Czech Republic with a top-class ensemble. The team of national coaches Edi Telser (women), Bruno Diethelm (men's elite and U23) and Martin Gujan (men's U19) comprises 33 athletes; in the women's elite, women's U23 and men's elite categories, Switzerland has the defending champions with Jolanda Neff, Sina Frei and Lars Forster.
Nino Schurter will decide whether he will compete in the European Championships after the World Cup races in Les Gets, France (July 12-14). If the Olympic champion decides not to take part, Simon Vitzthum will take his place in the line-up. Mathias Flückiger, the World Cup winner from Albstadt, is skipping the European Championships.
