Felix is back!


Sorry Folks,

i just forgot about to keep you guys posted here!
There 2nd half of my season went a bit up and down and im sure some of you missed me on the results from Monaco IM 70.3 and the XTERRA worlds in Maui.

Well, Monaco brought me a stupid crash in a slippy downhill and i finished in the TOP 100 after wrecking my bike.

I finished 3rd in the XTERRA European Tour. My chance for 2nd faded leading the last race in Cannes France with a broken Chain.
Then Maui was out of reach becaus i blew my budget for studying in Sydney and Capetown this winter!

So far for the good news and the bad news!

I will add y few nice shots and promise to blog a little more.....


See you all soon

XTERRA France Auron

Hi Together!

Sorry for my longe silence but racing on the weekends and school during the week kept me quite busy!
I had some ups and downs since my perfect race at the XTERRA EC but now im finally at the last stage (now theres a 6 week brake until Austria) of the tour in France.

All the guys here have been racing for the last 4 weeks on the toughest courses all over Europe and on Sunday there will be a merciless showdown 5800ft high in the french alps.

Are you ready for the big hike?

Highnoon in Itlay

Watch out for Sunday 10:00 CET! At the marvellous beach of Cala Cinepro (Sardegna) More than 250 Athletes will kick off the XTERRA European Tour.
I made the short trip from Stuttgart Yesterday allready to stop by at my friends in the south of the Island. Villacidro is always worth a visit and racing will continue here next weekend at the International X Triathlon of Big V!

Conditions are great ,im feeling more than prepared and enjoy beeing part of the family again. Theres nothing like the typically XTERRA hang loose with all my friends from around the world.

A few spins round the course and some getting-to-know with the salt water and itll be Sunday morning very soon.

I dont care much about the competition though XTERRA racing is unpredictable- Of course Olivier Marceau will go off in front and the big Prefesseur from France Monsieur Lebrun will hammer the bike from the back. Ill be somewhere in between on my way to the tete de la course!

Going Crosscountry!!!!!!!

XCountry Hausach

Two weeks to one of my biggest races this year- XTERRA Euro Champs on Sardegna- i went deep into the Black Forrest to ride my first A Category X Country race.

Worldcup Biker and XTERRA racer Scheidenbauer put me into the first starting line and with the gun we went off into a real thunderstorm.

With 40 guys behind me on the trail and no grip on the wet track there was no slowing down. Riding well into the top 10 in the first half i had some spectacular crashes when the downhills became watefalls in the end.

My legs were perfect but i was just out of control again. Finishing 18th i was quite happy havent broken anything too important.

When i look back over the last year, 12 months ago at this point my riding wasnt quite what it is now so i have no reason to worry about coming things.

Lets rock!
