Who would have thought I could love e-biking so much. I have been pretty amazed at how good they are at downhill mountain biking too. It’s opened up a whole new world to me. As far as access goes there are many places I can’t easily get to in a car and that take a very long time to get to hiking. Plus, when I have all my camera gear including tripods and sometimes lights and also my camping gear on my back, it’s pretty strenuous work and often I will put it off. But now with the use of an e-bike, I can get there much faster and easier. I’m currently borrowing a bike from a friend, but when I finally get my own, I will get myself a trailer for the back to transport my equipment.

Here is a shot of Jon Wilson of Verbier Gravity doing a nose press on his e-bike. He makes it all look so easy. And the second shot is me shooting him doing what he does best. Thanks for the sneaky pic of me Alf Alderton!

If you re interested in taking part in e-biking in Verbier this year, I can highly recommend Verbier Gravity for private sessions, group courses or guided tours.
