About Me

I'm a bike park manager in the Harz Mountains in Northern Germany. Bikepark Hahnenklee is a small, but advanced bike park, with two lifts and 6 gravity trails. I'm also a professional bicycles mechanic, having worked for Fox Racing Shox in South Africa and the NewZealand mountain bike team, at the 2013 World Champs in Pietermaritzburg South Africa.

More than that I am husband to a beautiful wife and father to a amazing little girl. Both my girls ride bikes as well and we ride together when we can.

Coming from the pnw flow trails were always jump trails. It wasn't until I took my bike with me on some midwest trips that I learned what a poorly designed mess some flow trails could be.
