Who are you? (Describe your self in a manner so others think it is interesting to read).

I really like …? My wife and kids, Skiing, Driving machines on my small farm, Sailing, Driving motorbike even though its more than 10 years since I had one :)

I really hate … ? Going all the way to the baker, very early sunday morning, ordering a lot of nice bread, only to discover that I forgot my wallet at home.

Favorite food? Depends on the weather. A good steak goes down almost anytime though.

Are you active? Athletic history (cycling results & other): Mainly skiing. I have an idea, that Im the participant with the greatest learning potential concerning extreme sports and bicycles. Don't mistake me, Im looking forward to doing all I can to help the team win this event!

Favorite sport? – and why? Skiing. Because you can do it so many different ways. Theres a great social aspect. Theres relaxation, nature, action and you can always push yourself a bit further.

Who are your heroes? Why? Havent completely made up my mind. One part of me wants to say “all the people who do all the jobs, that I don't like to do”, but another part wants to say “Corporal Blutch”... He always wants to desert, but in some magic way he ends up a hero most of the time.

What made you want to crew for the Team4Danes? Ever since I heard about the Race, from Christian Krause about 1 ½ years ago, I wanted to take part. This is simply so extraordinary that I wont miss it. One challenge is for the riders to put all their energy into the pedals. Another challenge is to keep them going 24/7, and keep the whole caravan up and running. Thats simply going to be a really special experience.

What are your expectations for RAAM?  Experiencing something which cannot be compared by anything else. To meet at work with a good team of dedicated people, and have fun with them.

What intimidates you most about RAAM? I will tell you after the race :)... There are so many things one could think of, they are not so present in my mind, but I could mention an example: That I fill diesel on the petrol car (or opposite), which would be one of the most embarrasing ways to break the car. I dont believe we have much time to break cars... :-)

Favorite quote, either famous or not, that fuels your ambition: You must be the change you wish to see in the world. - Gandhi
