Life starts at 50. ✨ 50 km/h, that is.
Like many others, I picked up cycling during Covid – and never stopped. Still riding the same entry-level bike with what might be the cheapest Shimano groupset around…
But those who know me, know I’ve got a serious need for speed. Especially since discovering Strava and the addiction that is KOMs. 👑
IYKYK – If You Know, You Know. Or differently expressed, If You KOM, You KOM! 💪
📸 So, when the world’s top time trial specialists came flying through Geneva for the Tour de Romandie, I had to chase speed through the lens instead.
Here are a few of my favourite shots.
And if you're on Strava too – let's connect!

Swiss time trial champion Stefan Küng, at the Tour de Romandie by Patric Pop, Photographer in Geneva. Unfortunately, this shot from 2 meters distance taken at full speed is not prfectly sharp, still I like the details of the expression.
