In September this year the second edition of our anual „<strong>Groundwork</strong>“<br />
event took place. This time we swapped rural France for<br />
something a little more closer to home, actually so close to home it<br />
was only a stone’s throw from our base in Cologne. The half-timbered<br />
and former manor house named „Landgut Breibach“ was our<br />
base for heading out into the surrounding landscape we know so<br />
well.<br />
When originally conceiving our “<strong>Groundwork</strong>” event for the first<br />
time, our intention was to keep the riding as the focal point, and<br />
spread over a few days so we can catch up, talking bikes with<br />
like-minded friends consisting of teamriders, freelancing contributors,<br />
distributors, long time supporting shops and befriended media.<br />
When we draw upon the experience of our team riders in the development<br />
of new and existing models, the exchanges can often be intense<br />
and focused on the task in hand, we thought why not establish<br />
an annual gathering, as kind of “thank you” for those that helped<br />
and are still helping to build the brand to what it is today. From<br />
this the idea developed into extending the<br />
invitations wider to those connected with<br />
KÜRTEN<br />
the brand, giving everybody the chance to<br />
try out the latest models.<br />
In the meanwhile <strong>Groundwork</strong> has become<br />
a melting pot for creative brainstorming<br />
from all perpectives, and an important<br />
component for our model development<br />
process - but at the same time it’s the first<br />
point in the year our latest range of bikes<br />
are presented for a hands-on experience.<br />

Jason Sellers (born in April, 1980)<br />
grew up in Wiesbaden Germany,<br />
lived for a few years in Los Angeles<br />
CA., studied Graphic Design<br />
before doing magazine layout<br />
for several years. Photography<br />
eventually entered his life and<br />
quickly dominated his path for<br />
documentary and lifestyle driven<br />
photography. Since <strong>Bombtrack</strong>’s<br />
inception Jason’s work<br />
has been a very important component<br />
of how we have been displayed<br />
in media. His eye for detail<br />
and composition always places<br />
our bikes and their stories into<br />
the ideal, probably perfect light.
Franzi Wernsing was born in Muenster,<br />
Germany in 1986 and has been<br />
exploring the world ever since.<br />
When she came back from studying<br />
art in Melbourne, Australia -<br />
Franzi added an apprenticeship of<br />
photography in Hamburg, Germany<br />
before delving into the world<br />
of advertising photography. Franzi<br />
became fed up with the daily<br />
grind, and actually did something<br />
about it - she sold all her belongings,<br />
took her boyfriend Jona and<br />
BOMBTRACK<br />
began to document and explore the<br />
GROUNDWORK world by bike. <strong>2017</strong> This gave rise to the<br />
- project 6 known as “Tales On Tyres”.

Frank Maier, born in April 1987,<br />
has been a passionate cyclist and<br />
bike lover since his childhood.<br />
His love for cycling was one of his<br />
main drivers to take up photography<br />
– a desire to document life<br />
on bike that eventually caused<br />
him to create a blog covering all<br />
spheres of cycling. Over the past<br />
few years shutuplegs.de has become<br />
one of the staples for original<br />
cycling photography content,<br />
not only for its immaculate layout,<br />
but also because Frank strictly<br />
avoids reposting anything.
