Biography
Fuhrer grew up in Seedorf and is a trained mechanic. He started racing sidecarcross in 1981 and qualified for the world championship for the first time in 1985, [1] racing for the Moto-Club Aarberg. [2]
From 1985 to 1996, he raced in the world championship. Fuhrer earned his first podium in 1987 with passenger Hans Rudolf Stettler. In 1990, he achieved his first race win, at the Swiss GP. After Adrian Käser joined him as a passenger for the 1993 season, the team's fortunes improved dramatically, earning 22 race victories and four world championships together. [3]
Fuhrer retired from the sport in 1996 for mostly financial reasons, finding it difficult to market sidecarcross in comparison to single-rider motocross. He also wished to leave the sport at the height of his career. [4] He stayed away from racing for two years before taking up motocross again, this time in the solo class. [5]
Andreas Fuhrer is married and has three children. He works and lives in Aarberg, where he owns a Kawasaki motocross motorcycle dealership, originally having worked in the local sugar factory. [6]
