Vor knapp 30 Jahren verkauften Jörg eBecker und seine Freundin Ulli alles, was nicht auf zwei Fahrräder passte. Sie wollten ihrem Leben in Kassel den 1 Rücken kehren und in drei Jahren um die Welt radeln. Rennradprofi Ryder Hesjedal kommt aus Victoria auf Vancouver Island Daraus wurden vier Jahre. Sie legten 58.000 Kilometer im Fahrradsattel zurück, bereisten mehr als 40 Länder und vier Kontinente. „Als wir in Kanada durch den Banff-­ Nationalpark geradelt sind“, erzählt Becker, „waren wir so begeistert, dass wir auf die Idee kamen, hier Fahrradreisen anzubieten.“ Die beiden fanden im kleinen Ort New Denver bei Nelson in British Columbia ein Seegrundstück und blieben. Vielen hundert Radurlaubern hat Becker seither seine Wahl heimat gezeigt. Im Winter organisiert er Radreisen in Länder wie Südafrika oder Neuseeland. „Am liebsten aber“, so Becker, „bin ich in Kanada.“ kanada hat das RennRad entdeckt Als Becker in den Westen Kanadas zog, war die Region ein Ziel für Outdoor­Fans.
