We sat down with Domi Widmer to talk about his love for bikes and his riding career, pandas and, of course, his new business, Bam Bike. After coming up on the traditional path of cross country racing, Domi was an early member of the Biroma Team, one of the very few slopestyle teams with the specific goal of providing young talents a platform to develop. Domi maintains a diverse bike habit in combining dirt jumping, trail riding and looking after Bikepark Rüti with racing downhill and enduro in the Masters categories. Most recently, Domi started Bam Bike and we talk quite a bit about his mobile work shop, his plans and what he wants to achieve with his own business. Unfortunately, Domi also had to deal with his fair share of injuries throughout the years and he talks us through his mindset and approach that has brought him back to riding bikes again.
We touch on quite a few of our previous episodes in our chat with Domi, most importantly the ones with Dominik Bosshard, Chris “Flying Grizzly” Visscher and Lucas Huppert, but also our friends from the Swiss Enduro Series and you can find all of those episodes in our archives.
