About Georg Winterberger
Georg is responsible for the entire motorcycle-tour programme at Overcross - and yet he's happiest where there's the least tarmac: in Central Asia. He knows the Pamir Highway, the passes of Kyrgyzstan and the vastness of the Kazakh steppe from dozens of trips.
As head of the programme he keeps many tours on track; as a guide he's in the saddle himself. That double role makes him the calm centre of the team: he knows what a tour needs in detail because he rides it to the end himself.
Altitude, cold, endless tracks - where others reach their limits, that's where the real appeal begins for Georg. And he has the rare gift of passing that enthusiasm on to a whole group.

What guests say about Georg Winterberger
-
The Pamir with Georg was the trip of my life. He rides technically brilliantly, remains calm at 4,000 meters elevation and has a solution for every breakdown. I have rarely had such a carefree feeling in such wild terrain.
-
Georg plans ahead, without losing spontaneity. You can feel the years of experience in every decision. He has turned a group of solo fighters into a real team in two weeks. Thank you for everything!
Why we at Overcross trust Georg Winterberger
Georg is the man who holds our motorcycle programme together - and who rides out front on the hardest tours himself. We trust him because he plans nothing he hasn't ridden, and because he stays as level-headed at 4,000 metres as he is at base camp.
