Cycling: Gerald Ciolek hangs up his cycling shoes and ends his career at the age of 30. It had recently become quiet about the former winner of Milan - San Remo. Last year, Ciolek was active for the ProConti Team Stölting Service Group, but he wasn't able to build on the strong form he used to have.
Time to say goodbye to Gerald Ciolek - after a lively career with many ups and downs, the 30-year-old from Cologne is ending his cycling career.
