Who are we?

Michael Schneider

The BIG one

Michi is the man for the rough stuff! Coming from the MX scene, he discovered Enduro mountain biking for himself and is looking for the next best lap. In France, he worked as a bike guide and workshop manager at a bike station. Always with the urge to get better. Keeping his feet still - not his thing. Off the bike he is the IT nerd #python

Jasmin Oberlin

Our Powerwomen

Jasli our powerwomen manages everything that requires patience and flair. There are no limits to her creativity. Whether on the bike or behind the screen, she is always a bit sneaky. On her Yeti, she prefers the technical rock garden and pulls off just about everyone on the uphill #shredy

Our freelance guides

How it started

We ourselves started mountain biking relatively late. In 2019, we found our common hobby - enduro mountain biking. But then we really stepped on the gas! We wanted to explore all possible spots & trails. With a huge appetite, we saw a wide variety of destinations and hot spots. In the process, we made a few mistakes and learned a fair amount.

Who hasn't experienced it? You're at a new biking spot, you find all kinds of routes and various trails in the usual apps. We know from our own experience how much time it takes to combine these sensibly. Uphills that are not worthwhile, pushing sections, overgrown and unmaintained trails can be very frustrating. 

Another problem is that you arrive in a new destination and don't really know how best to approach the trails. As soon as you get a local tip, things look completely different. 

Our story

Enduro mountain biking is our passion. We are not bike park freaks, we are not lovers of alpine single trails & hiking trails. In our opinion, it's the healthy mix that counts. We also prefer natural & shaped trails. 

For us, enduro riding is not just a way of life or the fulfilment of our dream, but rather the way we are and live. 

We missed personal, relaxed, hip and affordable offers. And it is exactly this spirit that we would like to share with you. All our offers should enable you to experience and get to know each other.

We are all about community, good food, fun on and off the bike. In short, enjoying the moment.

We therefore choose our destinations carefully and offer our camps in MTB regions that we ourselves are convinced of. Of course we are explorers and want to offer you everything from the top spots of the bike scene to exotic, small and new spots.
