Three Schwerin cyclists: 1000 kilometer challenge in MV!

Neustrelitz, Deutschland - The anticipation for the upcoming cycling highlight grows! On June 20, 2025, three cyclists, Sven Gerloff (56), Ronny Wöhler (53) and Steffen Skroblien (56), be launched in a great adventure: the race "Around Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania". The route, which includes almost 1000 kilometers with 4100 meters of altitude, will be an immense challenge for the participants. "We have respect for the route, but the joint training inspires us," they report. Nordkurier reported that the three men have decided to contest the big bike race to motivate each other.

The 1000 km route leads through the enchanting landscape of Mecklenburg, past idyllic lakes and small places. The Mecklenburger Lakes round (MSR) serves as a perfect training. This event, which already attracts thousands of cycling enthusiasts, extends over 300 kilometers and takes into account all age and performance classes. Participants of all levels of experience appreciate the sporting challenge and the opportunity to strengthen their own self -confidence.

an intensive training

The three Schwerin have established themselves as real endurance athletes and have already been in their profiles for several thousand kilometers. The MSR is certainly not an indiscriminately route - at 10 p.m. they already covered 150 kilometers. With an average of 30.6 km/h, they mastered the 300 kilometers with more than 1500 meters of altitude. "It was a real drag, but also a sign of our fitness," says Gerloff. After the event, however, one of the athletes returns for fatigue, while the other two continue and arrive in Schwerin after 587 kilometers.

After returning home, it turns out that the three men who work in everyday life as an entrepreneur, service manager and customer advisor have found a good knack for the optimal balance between work and sport. "The training hours on the bike not only promote fitness, but also our team spirit," adds Wöhler.

The big goal in mind

The upcoming race requires careful planning. The team has to organize itself well, because the meals have to be settled independently. As early as the previous year, the winning team took 31 hours and 11 minutes to master the route, while the best individual starters from Switzerland brought 39 hours and 52 minutes to the clock. The pressure to prove yourself in competition increases.

For all cyclists in the country, the MSR is a real highlight in the calendar. There are over 100 cycling events in Germany every year, with competitions in the mountains of Bavaria or in the idyllic Baden-Württemberg. In addition to the team Gerloff, Wöhler and Skroblien, many enthusiastic cyclists will certainly give you in the coming weeks who look forward to this fascinating event.
