To this end, "Ride" teamed up with Lukas Stöckli to conquer the Pilatus by bike and discover a little-known region of Central Switzerland via the Susten and Joch Passes. The booklet is generously illustrated with pictures by selected photographers. Individual pictures can even be opened up to create oversized panoramic images.

In addition to the detailed reports, the May issue of "Ride" brings you all the latest news from Swiss mountain biking and shows which mountain bikes, accessories and functional clothing are ideal for the upcoming bike tours.
