Earlier Version of Richard Loewenherz

Name: Richard Loewenherz
Age: 21
Nationality: Austria
Rider type: Fighter




Short Bio: This guy was born with the trademarks of a true road racer, nicknamed The Fanatic. A fighter in his nature, he will give everything even if the odds are overwhelmingly against him. His name may or may not be translated to Lionheart in English, but for this guy there’s only one way: forward!

Since he is Austrian, he followed the german hype around Jan Ullrich and Erik Zabel. For him the rider that most inspired him was Georg Totschnig though after his countryman won his Tour de France stage and was crowned Austria’s sportsman of the year. However Totschnig destroyed each respect Loewenherz head for him, when he cried on television. Young Richard wasn’t pleased. The young Austrian rider was brought up in a catholic cult where he escaped from at age of 15. At that point, he was determined to become a professional cyclist.
Richard Loewenherz does not share such traits as does Totschnig and instead will try any time of the day to get into a breakaway. He does not fear pain, but he embraces it. He does not need forgiveness thus he will always push just that little harder. He doesn’t care about his pay-check. This are the perks of being raised by a maniac preacher in a remote village. Winning is everything to this guy. He will work for his teammates tirelessly. He will go into breakaways more often than you dare to count. And eventually, he will come out top.
He likes to paint and portray himself as a warrior. That’s why you won’t find any pictures of him but one thing is for sure: This cultish brute will try anything to beat his rivals! (except Doping)

Name: Super-Rider Mysterion
Age: 23
Nationality: Italy
Rider type: Puncheur

Short Bio: Nicknamed also the Enigma, this guy is the real deal. Ever since the youth races, this guy has been a mystery to many though. He does not share his name, but simply refers to himself as the Super-Rider. This goes even so far that this is the name on the startlists. While many think that this is just some sort of marketing-gag to get more fans on Facebook, others truly believe in Mysterion’s fight against the evil and corrupt of cycling.
Being officially classified as a puncheur, his most stand-out feature shows itself when he rides downhill: His courage and excitement in the eye of the danger when he furiously descents can only be described as unique. This man is a master on the bike, a virtuous of taking corners and snatching wins right and left. A battle-machine in his own right, any pussy footballer will simply crumble under his strength. But more importantly it seems: This man is on a mission.

Often time’s riders in the peloton refer to this guy as some sort of loony toon. A crazy mind that shouldn’t be on the bike, but they forget about his skill. Reporters are not sure if Super-Rider Mysterion is in fact a superhero on the bike - or another supervillain, in the tradition of Lance Armstrong, designated by Hein Verbruggen and his puppet McQuaid themselves after they vowed revenge on the UCI. Only time will tell though what’s the true secret behind Super-Rider Mysterion.

Rumour has it that he is a genetic experiment conducted by Italian Cycling Foundation in order to make them the best cycling nation in the world again. Other stories, more of superstitious nature, say that he is the punishment for disgraced dopers and the solution from the evil of Doping in the world, that he is born into this world to avenge all those who were wronged in previous years by Dopers. Legends even conclude that he shares his blood-line with Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali. However, this are stories set out in the world and probably not true (although we wouldn't dismiss them!). But one can see Super-Rider Mysterion and his virtues in the peloton: He will help good-spirited riders that are in need, while he shows no emotion towards the most obvious dopers of the peloton.

However, despite all the rumours and stories not much is known about him. This guy from an alpine village in Northern Italy does not talk much and he does not share much, but he brings in the results. Like any real men of strenght he too has a weakness though: Superman has its kryptonite, Batman has Robin and Super-Rider Mysterion's weakness are cobblestones. But rest assured, in the capable hands of a worthy manager, together both of you will achieve great things.

….Because he is the rider your team deserves, but not the one it needs right now... No wait, that's not right, who would hire such a guy if you don't need him?
