Team Vorarlberg starts 26th season with Tour of Antalya UCI 2.1!
Tour of Antalya UCI 2.1 – ready for race! Moran Vermeulen nominated for the Olympic squad in Paris
Tomorrow marks the start of the 26th season for Team Vorarlberg in Turkey at the Tour of Antalya. The first section starts in Side and ends in Antalya. The UCI 2.1 Tour over four stages is top-staffed with numerous pro teams from the highest categories.
Unfortunately, Moran Vermeulen and German newcomer Jannis Peter were unable to make the trip due to short-term illnesses. A flight was organized for Tomoya Koyama yesterday.
Moran Vermeulen: “I was fit all winter and would have been ready for Antalya. I’m annoyed because I was really looking forward to the early start of the season. You can choose a lot of things, but your body still has a say. There are still a lot of races on the calendar. Now the focus is on Rhodes at the beginning of March!”

Moran Vermeulen on the “long list” for the Olympics!
National coach Stefan Sölkner has nominated Team Vorarlberg professional Moran Vermeulen to the Austrian squad for Paris. It is a long list of the best pros – mostly from the World Tour teams. It is therefore all the more pleasing that with Moran Vermeulen, a Team Vorarlberg professional now also has a legitimate chance of making it to the Olympics. The team will do everything in its power to ensure that this journey ends with a start in Paris!
