How did you get into cycling \u2013 and what does it mean to you today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always been fascinated by cycling. But I really got into it through my work \u2013 through exchanges with professional cyclists and events like the Race Across America. Today, cycling is so much more than just a sport to me: it\u2019s my outlet, a true escape from everyday life. When I\u2019m on the bike, I feel free.<\/p>\n

Is there a special moment on the bike you\u2019ll never forget?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Absolutely! It was during a climb up the Grimsel Pass at a cycling event. I was completely exhausted \u2013 dead tired, fog everywhere, barely two meters of visibility, and already many kilometers in my legs. And suddenly, it hit me: my life is about to radically change \u2013 I\u2019m going to be a father. That moment struck me deeply. I was moved to tears. It was a turning point in my life that I will never forget.<\/p>\n

What fascinates you about events like TORTOUR \u2013 whether as a rider or a spectator?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both roles inspire me. As a spectator, I follow the race closely via live ticker \u2013 the drama, the performance, the sheer willpower. And as a rider, it\u2019s this feeling of being completely thrown back on yourself. You fight against the elements, go through crises \u2013 but those can turn around in an instant. That\u2019s what\u2019s so fascinating about ultra cycling: it\u2019s a journey to your inner self.<\/p>\n

How did your company come to support TORTOUR \u2013 and were you personally involved?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ultra cycling is part of WINFORCE\u2019s DNA. In 2006, Dani Weiss won the Race Across America. Our very first products were developed specifically for that kind of performance \u2013 including the ULTRA ENERGY COMPLEX, which was still a prototype at the time. Due to high demand, we later commercialized it. When TORTOUR was founded, we did everything we could to become a partner \u2013 because it was just the perfect fit.<\/p>\n

Why is TORTOUR such a good match for your brand?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simple: the spirit of TORTOUR reflects our core values. Perseverance, grit, getting back up again and again \u2013 all of that is embedded in ultra cycling. And that\u2019s exactly what WINFORCE stands for. \u201cGoing the Distance\u201d isn\u2019t just a slogan \u2013 it\u2019s our philosophy.<\/p>\n

Whether as a rider, spectator, or partner \u2013 for Remo, ultra cycling is far more than just a sport. It\u2019s a reflection of everything WINFORCE stands for: passion, endurance, and a firm belief that with perseverance, anything is possible. TORTOUR isn\u2019t just a coincidence \u2013 it\u2019s lived philosophy. Because as Remo shows us: those who face their story with courage become the heroes of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
