Welcome to Betzgi.ch
Traveling by bicycle is one of my passions. Starting in 1990 I have repeatedly been on the road and meanwhile spent more then 9 years in the saddle, cycling 200,000 km on all continents map. 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!
