Cycling training course Walter Lohman Ring (Bochum)

A cycling memorial and exceptional athlete Walter Lohman set a memorial with this idyllic training course in 2009. In addition to a fine paved track for the racing athletes, a skill parade of pallets and wood was created. This well maintained course in a small and wonderfully green forest is reserved for cyclists and recreational cyclists - pedestrians, campers and dog toilets are prohibited here. Unfortunately, the pedals have to complain repeatedly vandalism, which even found inglorious mention in the local press. Outside the training times (which are unfortunately nowhere to be read), the freely accessible facility is available to all cyclists. Dixie toilets are available.

The Walter-Lohmann-Ring is a cycling training facility and is available to all cyclists free of charge. It's worth doing a lap by bike. Walter Lohmann, member of the "RV Sturmvogel 04" in Bochum, was the most popular German stayer from the 1930s to the 1950s. In 1927 he started as a road driver. As an amateur he won the races Berlin-Cottbus-Berlin, Bochum-Münster-Bochum, Rund um Dortmund in 1932 and finished sixth at the UCI Road World Championships for amateurs in the same year. He then switched to the track and in 1934 won the six-day race in Berlin. From 1938 to 1953 he was ten times German stayer champion of the professionals, 1935 and 1947 he was runner-up. In 1952 he won silver again at the World Championships in Paris. Overall, he won more than 600 races in his career.
