When did you start racing?
My first BMX race was in 1983, I did not stop racing since then!

When did you start riding for the TEAM  FIAT ROTWILD
Since the beginning of the team!

What is special about the TEAM FIAT ROTWILD?
I can ride the best and nicest bikes. I'm part of the development process and I can be proud if a new project works perfect. And I drive my FIAT Ducato truck, which I really like.

Where is your hometrail and what are your favourite bikespots?
Straight in front of my door you can find endless singletrails. My dirt spot: the trails in Bochum. Favorite area: wherever I have fun!

Which one is your favourite ROTWILD bike?
During the last year I used the RFC 0.4 a lot, a real allround bike. Right now I'm riding the new R.E.D. bikes, especially the R.E.D. TWO. Great fun! And of course the new R.E.D. ZERO hardtail for jumping. Too bad, one bike is never enough!

What are your most favourite races?
Megavalanche in Alpe ´d Huez – a real adventure on sensational singletrails. But also the downhill track in Todtnau – super spot!

How much do you train?
As much as I can, about 3-5 times a week. A mixture between tour riding, dirt, dual and motorcross – from time to time alos roadbike.

What are your sportive goals in 2008?
German Champion Downhill Masterclass!

Your personal motto?
If you're not the fastest you have to look good at least.

Thanks to ROTWILD for the longtime trust. And the nicest bikes on this planet!
