Daan Kahmann – Chasing Cancellara

Daan Kahmann – Chasing Cancellara

Daan Kahmann is one of the founders of Kaptein Cycling Club in Amsterdam. Last year, he completed his first ultra cycle ever: Chasing Cancellara in Switzerland. Riding from Zürich to Zermatt, 280km with 6.000m of elevation. 🇨🇭

“The profile of this ride made me feel sick. It made me feel uncertain, anxious and gave me shivers. This ride definitely rips you out of your comfort zone.

After months of training, obsessive dieting, and anxiety the day was finally there. Cycling through Zürich to the start at 01:00, together with my friend Louis Laga, was already magical. The day itself has so many different stories. Too many to share in this Instagram post. 
Emotions ran high when crossing the finish line. But I knew, this was a ride to remember!”
