German National Road Race Championships

The German National Road Race Championship is a cycling race organized by the German Cycling Federation. The event was established in 1910, with the women's championship starting in 1968. No competitions were held in 1914 to 1918, 1926, 1927, 1929 to 1933, 1942 to 1945 and 1973. The winners of each event are awarded with a symbolic cycling jersey.

Fabian Wegmann (pictured at the 2007 Tour de France) is one of seven cyclists to have won three championships (in 2007, 2008, and 2012).
