Kick-off with the Duro

The days up to the starting signal with the Bucher Duro are soon counted. We are very happy and are curious what we can experience.

Kick-off with the Bucher Duro

But before it finally starts we would like to thank our relatives, friends and acquaintances. We were able to get a lot of help and support. One can hardly imagine what there is to organize in such a project and so many people helped us with words and deeds. Also, we have already made many new acquaintances who have even turned into friendships.

Thank you!
