Detlef Fastré

Detlef Fastré enjoys being a doctor. But when the Cologne-based anesthesiologist isn’t on duty, he has another passion: cycling. He doesn’t just ride the ten kilometers to work on his racing bike. When he’s out and about on weekends, he sometimes covers 100 kilometers in a day. His favorite ride is in the Bergisches Land region. “Cycling is a wonderful counterbalance to his medical career,” he says. His workload at the anesthesiology practice where he works currently amounts to about 50 hours a week. “On my bike, I can relax mentally and stay physically fit at the same time.”
For Fastré, however, sport is also a social experience. And so, in 2002, he became a member of the “Cycling Association of German Doctors and Pharmacists” (RVDÄ). (now dissolved). The association had around 200 members. They all shared a passion for cycling. Fastré is a board member and serves as treasurer. The motivation for his commitment: the friendly contact with colleagues from other disciplines. The association organizes road bike and mountain bike tours and training events on medicine and cycling.
