My Bikes
I've always been drawn to the two wheeled expression of forward motion. Flying through an s-curve on a motorcycle, racing down a steep single trail on a mountain bike, or panting uphill to reach the top... what a feeling.

1999: GT ZR 3000. I raised the handlebar to avoid neck pain and see more of the landscape. From the Bike Store. Still in regular use as of July 2010 |
1997: GT Karakoram, bought at Wheelhouse. Currently awaiting to be transformed into a city bike for commuter use |

2006 Challenge Hurricane custom built by Radieschen in Freiburg. Great for flat terrain and lots of fun downhill. |
2009: Specialized Epic Expert, a great "previous season deal" from Happy Sport in Zürich Albisrieden. Only full suspension bike I know with enough frame space for two bottle cages. |

Left: the bike I ride around town. I used it daily to and from Bahnhof Hardbrücke from 2006 to 2010. Since I have a new job out of town I don't ride it often anymore. |
