Spring is here

We have all waited so long, spent our time on Zwift or endured those cold, wet and miserable winter miles, but now we have made it. Spring is here and every day it is getting warmer and more lovely to just go out and ride. We are deserving the fresh green, beautiful colours and smells of those flowers and the fair air. I while ago I have made two videos for a bit of extra motivation – one of cyclocross and of road riding. Enjoy ;)

Thanks to Niklas Bredenbeck for the cutting work!


And in case videos are not to your taste, here are two photographs of the same rides from Instagram.

Sublime on two wheels #CasparGoProFriedrich


When living and studying in the picturesque town  of Greifswald, you can not get around the figure of Caspar David Friedrich. Nonetheless, you are forgiven in case you have been wondering what on earth a long-deceased painter has to do with GoPro cameras and bikes. The answer is quite simple. If you ride your bike in this spectacular landscape and capture those moments, the resulting pictures are very reminiscent of Friedrich's works. As my Instagram contains an immense number of images, I have selected the most sublime ones here. I have captured nearly all of them with GoPro Hero 5 black – mostly whilst riding cyclocross around dawn. Enjoy ;)
