This is the bike that the German Forrest Gump is riding from NYC to LA. When Deichmann reaches Los Angeles, he'll be running straight back to the Big Apple...
He has plotted a route following smaller roads, which will lead him through some remarkable locations such as Death Valley, Monument Valley and the Rocky Mountains.
Despite the chance of facing snowfall in the Appalachian Mountains and extreme heat in Death Valley, Deichmann believes that the greatest challenge will come in the form of the prairie, as he faces the mental test of running straight for 1,000 kilometres in Kansas, without much variation for three weeks. Who said Tour de France was tough?But, just like we’re interested in the bikes of the pros, tackling a challenge like this sparks curiosity over the kit choices.
As mentioned before, Deichmann is no stranger to remarkable rides. He currently holds records for cycling across three major continents: Eurasia in 64 days, the iconic Panamerica route from Alaska to Patagonia in 97 days, and from— he completed the latter a whole month faster than the previous record holder.
In 2020 and 2021, Jonas completed the first-ever triathlon around the world, covering a distance equivalent to 120 Ironman races. It was during this crazy challenge he gained national acclaim in Mexico, and earned the nickname the"German Forrest Gump". While completing the challenge, Deichmann is raising funds for World Bicycle Relief. You can donate to the cause and follow his journey through
