Touring on a mountain bike, with your entire luggage directly attached to the bike so that you can enjoy full mobility out on the paths – this is what freedom-loving mountain bikes define as adventure. The VAUDE Rider and athlete Rodolphe Pasciuto went to the Isle of Skye for a little Bikepacking adventure. Scotland is predestinated for these kinds of tours. Endless trails, desert landscapes, changeable weather and pure nature represent this unique place on earth. The perfect conditions for Rodolphe to test the new bikepacking range and to treat hisself with a big portion of fish and chips. Dinner is served! Enjoy your meal, Rodolphe!

Was brauchen wir noch, was ist zu viel? Diese Frage hat uns die letzten Wochen begleitet. Eine der wichtigsten Entscheidungen überhaupt, fällt eben schon vor Start des Abenteuers…
Da sind sie meine ersten echten Nunataker! Nunataker – ein Wort aus der Inuit-Sprache – bezeichnet in der Glaziologie einen isolierten, über die Oberfläche von Gletschern und Inlandeismassen aufragenden Felsen oder Berg. Eins der wenigen Fachwörter die ich nie vergessen konnte.
The Story
Door to hell – my Galileo big picture. One of the most extraordinary things I’ve ever seen. In the middle of the Karakum Desert, there’s a crater of fire that comes from natural gas. To reduce the greenhouse gas methane, it was lit in the hope that it would soon be extinguished, but it is still burning today.
The Photographer
My name is Daniel Kreher and I’m from Salgen in the Lower Allgäu region of Germany. My greatest passions are traveling and travel photography. It all began in 2005 when a friend of mine, Peter, and I took off on a major motorcycle journey for the first time. I was bitten by the travel bug and it hasn’t let up since. It’s all about experiencing unique moments up close and personal. Capturing the fascination of the lighting is the key to success for creating captivating images. This usually means a lot of hard work, but the unforgettable moments make it all worth the effort. In each and every second, a multitude of angles and lighting effects create an endless variety of motifs and images in the world, which appear and disappear.I see capturing these images skillfully with my photo gear as my personal challenge for the future, especially since I’ll probably always have only one chance to visit each region.
