These routes, which are surprisingly little known, include the sensational descent from the Mäderlicke near the Simplon Pass to Brig or the Monte Coltignone near Lecco. Two routes that have what it takes to become classics. The route over the Duranna Pass between Arosa and Klosters is known as a classic. Ride brings a new version of this somewhat dusty tour. And finally, Karen Eller and Holger Meyer went on an inspection in Valle Maira in Piedmont for Ride. They brought back lots of extraordinary pictures and just as many trail tips for the remote valley.
 
The background report takes a look at three Swiss mechanics, Peti Fontana, Gery Peyer and Patrick Griessen, who have all changed the mountain bike world in their own way. Ride also visited the Swiss Bike Park and provides the background to this mega-project.
 
But the June issue has even more to offer. Bike and accessory tests are of course just as much a part of it as the varied lounge or the photo series by selected photographers. And what has been true for all previous issues of Ride is no different for issue 03/2020: above-average quality pictures, a loving design and a varied lounge with lots of interesting and unusual news from the world of mountain biking.
