At 73, Peo Vernassa is still ripping trails with the energy of a kid—proof that passion doesn’t age. Haven’t seen his story yet? Head to the Trek bikes YouTube channel and check it out. Don’t we all want to be like Peo when we get there?

Peo and Roberto Vernassa show just how far passion and dedication can take you. At 73 and 67, these brothers are still shaping trails and evolving the sport they helped build—turning Molini into a cornerstone of Europe’s enduro scene.
Spending those unforgettable days with them was a powerful reminder of what lifelong stoke looks like. We left the shooting with a new goal: to be like Peo and Roberto when we reach their age.
The video is now live on Trek’s YouTube channel—go check it out! Huge thanks to everyone involved especially @harald.philipp & @bohnian for all the work and support.
Molini wouldn’t be the MTB heaven it is today without Peo & Roberto Vernassa. Decades later, they’re still riding, still shaping, still inspiring—and we’re proud to have captured the story of the brothers who built its legacy. And honestly, who wouldn’t want to ride like Peo at 73?

explorertrip Ecuador appreciation post_01:
actually there is a lot to go trough. so many good memories with the boys @locofreeride@josecuervojijon@maxdraeger_visuals@markus.emp out there, so many good people we met and all the stunning places we visited..
.
Traveling with @maxdraeger_visuals means getting some toplevel riding shots in exchange for pushing your bike up the hill for an countless amount of times. - so being proud of that, I’ll start with his work. Maybe some of my snaps will follow and maybe someday there might be a video coming aswell. lets see what happens and keep it loco.. ;)
