Living the EVOC Spirit: A Ride to Remember 730 km. 10,500 meters of elevation. 53 hours total. 32.5 hours moving. We asked Nele Schmidt about her latest ultracycling adventure, and here’s her story: "How can you spend the longest days of the year better than on a bike? We thought it, we did it: We took part in the first edition of the Easy-Peezy Lemon-Squeezy route of COWLANDS, an ultracycling brevet organized by friends with a shared passion for cycling. As the organizers put it: 'Cowlands would be more than just a ride; it would be a celebration of friendship, community, and the thrill of testing limits.' That's why I, along with two co-workers, couldn't resist starting this adventure. The event began and ended in Munich, with the route showcasing the most beautiful landscapes right in our backyard. Experiencing the Alps around Munich from a new perspective was incredible, but let’s start from the beginning. In 53 hours, we faced the highest temperatures of the year, struggled up steep and long climbs, and pushed our limits (and my bike) on 32.5% ramps. I even had to turn down my boss's invitation for a cool drink during a public viewing in Leogang — everything for the race. We rescued an elderly woman from the heat, endured the heaviest rain and side wind, which brought the much-needed cooldown. Afterward, I felt like a newborn — or rather, like myself again — and could finally enjoy the uphill sections. (Yep, I’m definitely from the North—I like it cold and rainy.) On Friday at noon, we were warmly welcomed by friends and colleagues, cold beers, and cake at 3Mills. Cowlands was 53 hours of fun, 32.5 hours of moving legs, sweating, climbing (and pushing) mountains, lots of laughter, and great times with amazing people and friends. Hats off to everyone, especially the incredible women racing like hell. Cowlands — this one’s for the books." . Credits: Tom Kieslich . #protectthethingsyoulove

Info
EVOC was born when we started designing and building bags for our own needs: sophisticated products of the highest quality with reasonable features. We noticed on trips to remote locations that the last thing you want is to worry about the functionality of your equipment. It was not long before friends and riders we met started asking us for our gear, so the idea gradually turned into a business. Since EVOC’s inception, the standards for all our products remained unchanged: the highest possible quality, ingenious details and sophisticated functions. We simply love the sport and our dedication to designing and building reliable and innovative products that fulfil all imaginable needs has merged into the EVOC philosophy: We want to keep it simple, functional, reliable and unique, but we also offer something special – a passion for what we do. You’ll notice when you hold our products in your hands and you’ll certainly experience it when you use them: They are much more than merely pieces of equipment.

We got a little update... Well, actually a huge update at the HQ in Munich! Since we love a good lunch break and also absolutely prioritize some after work drinks our latest addition is the perfect match for the EVOC team. Our new kitchen, built inside a former transport container, combines industrial charm with modern design. Located in the courtyard of the EVOC HQ in Munich, it’s not just a visual highlight but also a statement for sustainable space planning. Meeting area, relaxing lounge, business talk, coffee and cake, wine tasting - the KITCHEN CONTAINER hosts it all. Special thanks to SUGO communication design bureau for your enormous support in this project! . BORA Holger Feist Konrad Lohoefener Tobias Reischle TwoTimesTwentyFeet .

Uniting bike rides and environmental support: Community CleanUP Ride In collaboration with PATRON e.V. and Rad & Sport Blaichach, we organized a Community CleanUP Ride as part of the Allgäu CleanUP Days. Cycling, cleaning up nature by collecting trash, and bonding with our bike community – could it get any better? As a proud sponsor of PATRON e.V., we support their projects because we share the same commitment to protecting what we love, especially nature. That's why our employees, Nele Schmidt and Johanna Müller, eagerly joined the ride, and we are thrilled to be part of doing good together! Want to join us next time?
