HANDBIKE, SWIMMING, RACING WHEELCHAIR: SPORTS FOR A TRIATHLON

After an accident in May 2011, Thorben spent a long time in a trauma center. It was here that he became acquainted with Stefan, who was also recovering. Even at this early stage, Stefan told him enthusiastically about his passion for handcycling. The information was pushed to the back of his mind for a while after he left the center, though.

In June 2020 Thorben decided to go on more cycling tours, and suddenly he remembered what Stefan had said. He got in contact and was invited by Stefan to try handcycling with him on a closed training course. As Thorben immediately loved the sport, he decided to buy his own handbike.

And the handbike sports club allowed him to meet other athletes who inspired him to try triathlons. This year, Thorben has decided to take part in official triathlon competitions, and we will naturally accompany him.
