Our first UCI Continental road team, WSA Pushbikers, was established as a collaboration with the Austrian team WSA. This partnership made it possible to combine the expertise of both teams and to be active in both road and track cycling. In 2018, the team competed in the team time trial at the Road World Championships in Innsbruck-Tirol. Under the direction of DS Christoph Resl, the road team raced in events on the UCI Europe Tour, while the track riders took part in national championships, European Championships, Six Days races, and international track events. The Pushbikers also impressed in the criterium scene, claiming victories at events such as the Fixed Gear European Championships and the Red Hook Crit series. The possibility of pushing his own limits and having to leap over them to get ahead. He loves the contrast between being proud of himself and constantly overcoming the status quo. In 2021, for example, his top 10 finish in the overall standings of the Radbundesliga showed that he can have a consistent and solid racing season. Last year he was able to convince for the Pushbikers with third place on the fourth stage at Belgrade Banjaluka (2.1). He just can’t do without sport; Patrick considers competitive sport as a lifestyle to be immensely valuable, also as a complement to his job as a primary school teacher.
