TOBIAS WOGGON

My name is Tobias Woggon. I am from near Cologne, originally, but the mountains were a big attraction and I live in Upper Franconia now. I have been on a bike as long as I can remember. At first, I just roamed the local woods, but then started to compete in races. At first, I competed in downhill marathons, like the “mega avalanche” where 350 people start simultaneously on a glacier and shoot into the first turn at the same time. This evolved into Enduro. For several seasons, I flew around the globe participating in the Enduro World Series and competing in races at the most beautiful spots in the world.

But there came a time where traveling for competitions lost its luster for me, because you were only able to stay at a place for a very short time, impossible to get to know the country and its people. Without the stress of racing, I now travel to the most beautiful trails of the world with my camera equipment in tow, and try to experience the countries as a local, far away from the touristy spots.
