Gerhard Czerner, born in 1976, has been travelling as a cycling journalist for many years and thus fulfilling his dreams. His exciting reports from his travels in the mountains and deserts of the world have been published in many magazines and books.
On stage, he talks live about his experiences around the world, his films and endeavours are presented at various film festivals. For him, travel always comes before his sporting appearances, and there is no end in sight to his racing career. As a driving technique coach and guide, he travels all over the world. His training as a bicycle mechanic helps him to be prepared for all situations. He also works in sports marketing for Deuter and Alpina. He also has experience in other mountain sports. All this makes his most daring cycling expeditions possible.
“My life is more about collecting moments than anything else.”
