Racy Bobsled Mission in Königssee

06.01.2011

 

 

Today I attend the luge World Cup in Königssee, one of the locations of our Olympic bid. With a smile but also a little skeptical I am rushing down the ice track on board of the Munich 2018 bobsled. It is cozy and tight in here but by all means not comfortable when we are going at a speed which feels like 500 km/h. I am quite relieved to finish in one piece and can only see stars.

In the picture on the right our pilot, bobsled World Champion Matthias Höpfner, sitting behind me CEO Bernhard Schwank and luge Olympic Champion and multiple World Champion Alexander Resch.
