Eric Junker
Hi, I'm Eric, born in 1995, and I've been touring Germany and Europe on my mountain bike for what feels like forever. I used to be a junior racer, but now I'm looking for new adventures with my self-built van. Alongside my training as a technical product designer and my degree in industrial engineering, I practically grew up on a bike.
Some people call me a pedant, especially when it comes to taking care of my bike. I simply enjoy finding the perfect bike and I choose my parts carefully because when I recommend something, I stand behind it 100%.
My passion has evolved from the early days when no one showed me how to turn a corner properly, to now when I pass on tips to others. For me, mountain biking is about more than just riding - it's about rider development, choosing the right equipment and having fun.
I prefer to be out on natural trails. If you don't find me there, I'm probably at an event supporting brands and spreading a positive vibe.
Outside of mountain biking, I love craft projects, including the lifelong dream of building my own motorhome, which will probably never be finished after several years - a never-ending story. I'm sure you know what I mean!
