A young man in his fifties, a seasoned sportsman, endowed with an extraordinary will, the Franco-Swiss Robby KNECHT plunged very early into the world of endurance and sensational sports.
The many sports he played forged his reputation as a fighter: Skiing, rugby, shooting at 300 meters, marathon, triathlon, military pentathlon, free fall, scuba diving and walking trips such as Geneva-St-Jacques-de-Compostelle (1904 km), the crossing of the pre-Alps from Geneva/Switzerland to Innsbruck/Austria and Geneva to Ivrea/Italy via the Great St. Bernard pass (2469 m).
Experienced biker on the track and on the circuit (2 participations in the Dakar in 2005 and 2009 and 1 Bol d’Or in 2009), he had the opportunity to ride on 2 wheels for short periods in several countries.
However, the desire to drive ever further and without setting a return date, to meet the world in all its diversity in a “nomadic” mode has become obvious to him…
This is how he has been riding a sidecar since 2017 and has made the decision to go around the world with his faithful machine!
Adventurer at heart, Robby wishes to share with as many people as possible his journey, his lived experiences, the places he visits and the characters he meets along the way…
