Mud on my face…” 🎵 mud on my bike, but a Bronze medal in my hands! 🥉

Traka 360 was the toughest, but the Gravel World Championships 🌈 in Nannup were definitely the most beautiful and emotional race of my life 🥲😍!
Due to the very hilly course (125 km and 3,100 m elevation) and my high „system weight“ of 87 kg, I lined up with the goal of finishing in the top 10, though even a result in the top third would have made me happy. Standing in the start box alongside Wayne Sanchez (2026 Granfondo World Champion), Sean Hardy (3rd at the 2026 Granfondo World Championships), and  Jan Olav Beitmyren (2022 Gravel World Champion, @jobeitmyren ), Wayne told me that he wasn’t the favorite—the two Australians, Richard Walsh and Tim Jamieson, were. I knew right then that this would be a tough nut to crack. The podium? Completely out of reach… 😅

The story behind the slides 📸:

Slide 1: 🥉 Bronze at a World Championship! Highlight of my 40-year cycling career!

Slide 2: Clean and focused at the start.

Slide 3: On Brockman Climb, the two favorites attacked with Wayne and pulled away despite my 356W effort. I held 4th and caught Wayne at the top.

Slide 4: High pace with Jan Olav—Wayne had to drop off.

Slide 5: 70 km teamwork with Jan Olav. Fair play: he waited during my 30s F1 pit stop (thanks Alex & Fiona!), I waited when his chain dropped.

Slide 6: Folly Climb (25 km to go): MY moment! Pushed 300W for 13 min and went solo!

Slide 7: Unforgettable moment on the UCI podium.

Slide 8: Overjoyed right at the finish line.

Slide 9: My trusted Open Upper - flawless after 4h45 mud! 🚲💪

Slide 10: Best support team: Alex & Fiona (and the pup)! ❤️

Slide 11: Official results list (Male 60–64) 📊.

A massive thank you to @velogfeller for preparing the bike, the @alpha.racing.team.switzerland for the support, my coach from @wysstraining who made sure I could deliver the best form of my life on this day, to @nannupgravel2026 for the perfect organization and the great hospitality, and above all, to my top support team Alex & Fiona for the perfect feed and cleaning stops! Without you, this wouldn’t have been possible! 🙌❤️

Granfondo European Championships in Varese / IT

Finished P7 out of 288 riders at the Granfondo European Championships, just 2 minutes off victory. The pace was brutal, the competition top-tier.

Beating former world champions and top riders proves the form is there, but when you set your sights on the podium, 7th place stings just a little bit. But I’m happy with these results anyway.

A big thank you to @alpha.racing.team.switzerland for the incredible support and to @velogfeller for keeping the gear in absolute top shape! 🚲⚡️

Still, proud to represent Switzerland and the team out there. Every race is a lesson, every gap is motivation. We keep pushing. 💪🏆

My first-ever youth league season has just ended here in Yverdon at the Swiss Championships.

Overall, I finished 11th in U16 and 3rd in the 2012. At the Swiss Championships, I finished 7th in U16 and 2nd in the 2012.

My whole season didn’t go as planned. I thought I would be one of the best and be able to step onto some podiums, but unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. The others were simply too strong for me.

Now I have the whole winter to train, improve, and come back stronger next year.

And Next year I’m sure I’ll have some beautiful battles with @nilsmaurer18 @loic._martins @arthur_colliard @54.jeanluis and Émile Maillefer

Thanks to all my friends and supporters

3 Days. 3 Stages. 1 Mission. 🥇🚴💨

What an incredible weekend at Riderman 2026! Three completely different stages, maximum intensity, and a perfect outcome.

Stage 1 | Individual Time Trial
All-out effort from the start ramp. Locked into the aero tuck, held the targeted power output, and secured the stage win with a +20-second lead - putting the leader’s jersey on my back right from day one! ⏱️🔥

Stage 2 | Road Race
Lining up in the leader’s jersey. The race was extremely fast and aggressive in the first half, but I pushed the pace, and extended my lead by an additional 7 minutes to take another stage win! 🏆

Stage 3 | Final Stage & GC Victory
The final showdown. Rode hard in younger front groups all day. The 2nd and 3rd place riders in my age group managed to hold on for about two-thirds of the course before the pace proved too high and they dropped off. Pushed it through to cross the line 3 minutes ahead, claiming the stage win and securing the Overall General Classification (GC) title! 🟡🏆

A huge thanks to my team, @alpha.racing.team.switzerland ch, @velogfeller and the organizers @riderman.de for putting on a world-class event.
