He won the German National Road Race Championships aged 18, the youngest ever rider to do so.[4] Ciolek was able to overcome seasoned sprinters Erik Zabel and Robert Förster without help from any team mates, ending the twelve-year domination of T-Mobile.[5] Besides winning the national championship, he secured three stage victories and the points competition at the Tour de Hongrie,[6] and a stage victory at the Mainfranken Tour.[7]
In 2006, Ciolek completed his training at the Ford Motor Company and was able to turn professional and devote his career to cycling.[8] Through the season, he rode strongly and secured a number of high placings in important races to prove he could challenge, and beat, the strongest sprinters in UCI ProTour teams. Ciolek had an excellent second placing at the Rund um den Henninger Turm, where he once again beat Erik Zabel.[9] Since Ciolek's AKUD Arnolds Sicherheit team merged with Team Wiesenhof at the beginning of the season[10] to be the strongest German team outside of the UCI ProTour, they were able to secure wild card entries to a number of ProTour events where Ciolek shone even more. At the Vattenfall Cyclassics, Ciolek secured fifth place.[11] A few weeks later, Ciolek won his first UCI ProTour event at the Tour of Germany, where he won stage three.[12] On 23 September he won U23 Road Race World Championship in Salzburg.[13]
