Do you remember when back in May the Bike Kingdom Lenzerheide kicked off its new monarchy with the first real banger bike video of 2020? Produced by Anthill Films and star-studded with cameos of heavyweights like Troy Brosnan, Brett Rheeder, Tomas Lemoine, Casey Brown, Brook MacDonald, Thomas Vanderham or Emil Johansson, “The Legend of Tommy G” celebrates the riding of one man: Thomas Genon aka Tommy G.

Now as “The Legend of Tommy G” enters the finals at Banff Mountain Film Festival, it is time to meet the man behind the legend. In Canyon’s new video “Lost & Found | Behind the Legend of Tommy G” the 26-year-old Belgian freerider provides some insights in the personal live of Tommy G. Thomas freely talks about his coming-of-age, the growing love for mountain biking and how it was a coping mechanism for single-sided deafness.
