Christoph Hüsser

Christoph Hüsser, born on 10 February 1954, is a retired Swiss sidecarcross rider who won the Sidecarcross World Championship in 1988 and again in 1989. He rode with his younger twin brother Andreas Hüsser as his passenger, and the two grew up on their grandparents farm at Stetten in the canton of Aargau. Christoph began in solo motocross and stayed in the solo class until 1986, when the brothers joined forces in the sidecar class. Besides the two world titles he won the Swiss national sidecarcross championship three times, in 1988, 1990 and 1991. After 1989 his world championship results declined and he used a series of different passengers, and he retired from both the Swiss and the world championship after the 1996 season, the year that closed the Swiss-dominated era of the sport, which had produced twelve world titles for the country in fifteen years. After racing he ran a mobile toilet hire business, which he started in 2001.
