Tejay van Garderen will line up at the USA Pro Challenge as the defending champion and will target the overall win in his final big goal of the season. He will be supported by the in-form Ben Hermans who recently finished fourth in the Tour of Utah.
Tejay van Garderen of the BMC Racing Team begins defense of his USA Pro Challenge title Monday in his adopted hometown of Aspen, fresh off a fifth-place finish at the Tour de France last month.
Among those joining van Garderen on the roster are Ben Hermans, fourth-place finisher at the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah last week, and past Swiss national road champion Michael Schär, who soloed to win one of three stages in Utah for the BMC Racing Team. The seven-day race includes a 16.1-kilometer time trial in Vail – which van Garderen won last year – and ends in Denver.
