NEWS: erstmals Top 100 @ Weltrangliste

Die heurige Mountainbike-Saison ist beendet und sie war mit Abstand die erfolgreichste meines bisherigen Lebens. Diese Tatsache spiegelt sich auch in der aktuellen UCI Mountainbike-Marathon-Weltrangliste wieder, in dieser bin ich seit dieser Woche mit Platz 72 – als viertbester Österreicher – erstmals in den TOP-100 vertreten!! 🙂
DANKE an jeden einzelnen von Euch, der einen Teil dazu beiträgt, dass ich erfolgreich bin!!
Während der heurigen Saison habe ich einen tollen Leistungssprung gemacht und das Mountainbiken macht mir momentan so viel Spaß wie nie zuvor.. Am meisten motiviert mich jedoch, dass es noch einige Punkte zum Verbessern gibt und dadurch sollte ich in Zukunft noch schneller sein.. 🙂
Eine schöne Motivation während der Saison war auch, dass ich einige tolle neue Kontakte bezüglich Sponsoring kennengelernt habe – dafür bin ich unendlich dankbar und schon gespannt was sich ergibt.. Wenn DU in Zukunft auch mit mir zusammenarbeiten möchtest, würde es mich natürlich riesig freuen!!
Mit meinen aktuellen Sponsoren gibt`s in den nächsten Wochen ein interessantes Film-Projekt.. 🙂
sportliche Grüße Lukas

The Story
OK, it’s the most famous glacier in the world. You can’t expect solitude here; every fifteen minutes a busload of tourists is released in the direction of the viewing platforms. And yet the sight of the Perito Moreno Glacier in Patagonia with its 4-km wide and 60 m high escarpment has something touching, something incomprehensible about it. It is a natural spectacle that takes your breath away and that instinctively describes the relationship between man and nature. Humility and tranquil joy of existence seizes every viewer.
The Photographer
Ralf Gantzhorn was born in 1964, holds a M.S. in Geology – and has even worked as a geologist (as an independent consultant in the contamination sector). He has been climbing since 1983 and working as a photographer since 1985. As a northern German, he is always torn between the far too distant mountains and the fresh sea air, but he’s found a compromise in Scandinavia, Scotland and Patagonia (where he has now spent over three years). He enjoys organizing trips in areas where unfamiliar vistas – which haven’t already been photographed 1000 times – lure from every corner. He often experiences his images as far too static, but then is pleased with the abundance of triangles in the structure and the fantastic light.

The Story
The picture was taken on the summit of Marmolada after an ascent of the Vinatzer/Messner on the south wall. We didn’t reach the summit until 10:00 p.m. so we bivouacke (planned) there. We woke up to this riot of color …
