About me
I started bicycle touring when I was 12. The whole day I thought “This is what the fun people do!”. Everyone I met was enjoying life. I have had many bicycles since then. All of them found their purpose, whether it was collecting aluminum cans from the road ditches, getting to school and work, or winning the Minnesota state Keirin Championship. When I decided to buy my first velomobile, I chose the Bülk because it combines my need for racing, taking care of the environment, and getting the groceries. But after having my first test ride at age 57, I realized the need to have fun again is most important!






Bülk MK1 Velomobile
After Eggert Bülk and Jens Buckbesch started the Milan project in 2005 (which is still running successfully today), they started a new velomobile project in 2021, the Bülk-MK1. It implements a new space utilization and aerodynamic concept. The findings from various wind tunnel tests were also taken into account. Jens documented every step of the Bülk-MK1 project, then he sent us very detailed info to create a page where you can discover the philosophy of the Bülk-MK1.
What is a velomobile
A velomobile is a human-powered vehicle related to the bicycle, for everyday use, with a body/shell that provides comfort, weather protection and luggage space. Due to the aerodynamically shaped bodywork, you can achieve a decent speed with little effort (30-50 km/h on flat road). Velomobiles are very suitable as commuter vehicles, for shopping or holidays, also are a good way to clear your mind while taking a tour or a road trip with your friends.
