BIKE IT! Festival - Mit dem Rad nach Übersee

In the organizer's words:

Cycling culture, urban development, art and music: a not quite normal late summer weekend on Überseeinsel.

Over the course of two days, a wide range of players from the world of cycling, urban development and traffic concepts, art and culture will come together between the time-honored buildings of the as yet unrenovated part of Überseeinsel. Manufacturers and dealers present bicycles and cargo bikes, equipment and clothing, including the opportunity to test them. Talks and discussions will shed light on topics relating to the city, the future, sustainability and cycling culture.

Get on your bike: a test track with technical riding finesse and cycling games in a small space make playing with two wheels fun. Themed rides through beautiful and exciting corners of the city or gravel tours into the surrounding countryside start here. Before and after, you can enjoy refreshments at food stands and coffee bars. Children will also get their money's worth, and for professionals and those who want to become professionals, there will be information on the commercial use of cargo bikes and on training and career opportunities in the bicycle industry and in urban and transport development.

And last but not least: with live music and an outdoor pub, you can even put your bike down on Saturday evening.

Outside and free of charge, a portion of curiosity and a desire for cycling and urban culture is all you need to enter!
