🚴‍♂️ My Toughest Ride Yet – For a Cause That Matters 💪

This August, I’ll be taking on my biggest cycling challenge to date, joining an incredible team of colleagues for Cycling for Good (C4G) – an employee-led UBS initiative that brings people together from across the globe to ride for something bigger than ourselves: community.

We’ll be cycling 680km from Munich to Padova in just five days, conquering an epic 11,700 metres of climbing along the way.

To put that in perspective?

That’s like climbing the Eiffel Tower 39 times, or scaling Ben Nevis twice a day, every day – for five consecutive days.

It’s more than 1.3x the height of Mount Everest.

This isn’t just a physical challenge – it’s about making an impact where it’s needed most. Since 2014, C4G riders have raised over CHF 1.16 million for grassroots charities around the world. This year, we’re continuing that legacy – and we’re asking you to support me and the team on this journey.

We’ll ride through iconic and unforgiving terrain – Berchtesgaden National Park, the mighty Grossglockner Hochalpenstrasse, Passo Giau, and Monte Grappa. The climbs will be brutal, but the cause keeps us going.

Your donation – no matter the size – will help fund local charities doing vital work.
