Starting in 1990 I have repeatedly been on the road
and meanwhile spent more then 5½ years
in the saddle, cycling over 125'000km on all
continents.
On this website you will find reports, maps
and photos of my journeys. A lot of
information about routes, high passes,
equipment etc. can be found too.
Have fun!
Current activities
I just quit my job and flat. In late september I started for my latest cycle tour!
This time I will start in Madagascar before I head over to the african continent. Again I pulled up stakes in Switzerland. Concerning the length of this tour, everything is possible...

This is not really the first time I pack up things preparing to leave for a longer trip, so you might think by now I should be used to do this. But it is different every time I do it. This time I hardly keep anything. A good feeling If you can almost pick up all your possessions and walk to the airport with it. Even though I have been preparing for month there are certain things that can only be done at the very end. All good friends want to be met for a last time and at the end it is getting very hectic. This all culminates at the very moment you leave. All of a sudden this is all over and it's getting quiet. Off we go for something new...
Information
- Semo La, 5575m
- Penzi La 4401m
High passes are one of my absolute favorite. On all of my tours big mountain ranges have always played a major role. I usually plan my route so as to cycle as many passes as possible.
Here I put together lots of information about those passes.
For selected routes I have collected detailed information such as route description, road books, GPS data etc.
