Jules Verne 2.0 on Top of Klausen Pass

It has been a wonderful day, when Louis, the tour director, called us to gather for a WAVE 2017 briefing at the Electric Fun Day in Buochs, Switzerland.

Team Jules Verne 2.0 did choose to take this opportunity to end the day with a driver over the top of the Klausenpass. It gave us a spectacular view on mountain peaks in the central part of Switzerland.

It’s 12 days to go to the start of the Grand Tour of Switzerland when the WAVE 2017 kicks off at BĂĽrkliplatz in Zurich. The clock is ticking and Martin and I are getting more and more excitied 🙂

WAVE Team 2017 constitutes at the Swiss Science Center

What a happy moment to celebrate for the three of us, Martin Wimmer from Austria as co-driver and navigator (left), me from Switzerland as team leader (right) and of course the most important partner Blue our Tesla Roadster 3.0.

Martin and I met mid February 2017 at the Swiss Science Center in Winterthur for a first 1:1 and of course for a lovely diner at Al Giardino in downtown Winterthur.

We are both looking forward to bring Blue to the start line in downtown Zurich on June 9th. It is going to be the Grand Tour of Switzerland. This route will soon get fully covered with charge points, so everyone can easily make it with an electric vehicle 🙂
