At the 2000 Sydney Summer Olympic Games, the tactics of German team riders reflected a commitment to professional rather than to national identity. This article explores how and why national identity in this event was subsumed by professional affiliations only to be reclaimed by the German press as evidence of national superiority. It also explores the application of a corporatist organizational model to explain the strength of commitment of riders to their professional cycling team
