Bora-Hansgrohe is the first WorldTour team to have a pre-season training camp location, with the 2020 season set to resume in July.

Schedules and goals for Bora-Hansgrohe leaders Peter Sagan, Emanuel Buchmann, Max Schachmann, Pascal Ackermann, and Rafau Mayka have yet to be determined.

Slovakian reports indicate that Sagan will compete in the Giro d'Italia as originally planned and may miss the "spring" classic in October. Beulah Hansgrohe has denied these reports, and the rider's schedule is expected to be finalized at the camp.

Beulah Hansgrohe is scheduled to head to Ötztal in the mountains of the Austrian Tyrol in mid-June, where she is making safety preparations to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, which has blockaded much of Europe since March. from June 3. travel is expected to be permitted throughout the country.

The team will divide the athletes into groups for the duration of the camp, splitting them up into accommodations in the valley and at 2000m elevation.

"First and foremost, we are all very happy to get things going again," said team manager Ralf Denk.

"This camp serves as a sort of prelude for all of us to get back into the routine. With two months until the first race, the training camp is ideal and everyone is very motivated."

"Our partnership with Ettal has done everything possible to make this camp possible. The conditions are perfect, both in the highlands and in the valley. This allows us to provide a tailored program for the athletes and we will all be back to top form in August."

The team has many COVID-19 measures in place for the camp, which offers a wealth of climbing, including the Timeljoch, the Rettenbachferner, and the Ettal Glacier Road.

Team doctor Jan-Niklas Droste has reviewed safety measures, including hygiene and rules of conduct, and the UCI is also working with team doctors to identify COVID-19 infected individuals and conduct supplementary medical checks before the athletes begin group training. Medical protocols are being worked on.

"As a team, our goal, even before the Corona crisis, has been to provide a responsible and sustainable approach to health care for our riders and staff. The Corona pandemic has presented us with new challenges, but it does not call these values into question."

"Rather, we are expanding these values through new concepts that we have introduced to adapt to new situations. The basis of these concepts is the prevention of infection through hygiene and behavioral regulations, close control of work processes and contacts, and clearly regulated medical measures such as the COVID-19 test.
