About

Andy Buchs riding bikes since the age of 6, besides skiing, cycling is one of Andy’s passions in sport. Using the bike to get to school, university and to explore the world. Traveled all over the Alps, Pyrenees, Island and Greeze in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Later several times in the USA. Since the 80’s Andy also explores trails in the Alps on his mountain bike.

Since 2014 he startet in several long distance races all over the world like Tortour Race Switzerland, TCR, Indian Pacific Wheel Race, Trans Am Bike Race, Trans Africa Bike Race, Trans Atlantic Bike Race and Silkroad Mountain Race.

2017 he startet with the organisation of self supported bicycle adventures. The NorthCape-Tarifa bicycle adventure, Iberica-Traversa, Morocco-BikeAdventure and the Alaska-Divide are listened on the calendar.

The Swiss-BikeAdventure is a result of the closed borders, as a COVID19 measure, that made traveling abroad difficult.
