Hans Rey is joining us at the 3rd Athens Bike Festival

Following the successful organization of the previous two Bike Festivals during the European Mobility Week in 2010 and 2011, it became evident that Athens is a city with a growing cycling culture and that an annual cycling festival in the heart of the city is a must for the increasing number of cyclists.

This year, the 3rd Athens Bike Festival will take place from 14 to 16 September in «Technopolis», an industrial museum of incomparable architecture that has been transformed into a multipurpose cultural space whose special atmosphere charmed the festival’s visitors last year as well.

The event will be organised during the European Mobility Week – an awareness raising campaign aiming at sensibilising citizens to the use of public transport, cycling, walking and at encouraging European cities to promote these modes of transport.

Organisers aim at offering visitors the opportunity to see and test the latest bike models, to discuss with the market experts and to experience an alternative lifestyle through the parallel activities that will present a different and active culture worth discovering.

All the major brands of the cycling market are expected to participate in the exhibition part of the Festival making the most of the opportunity to have direct contact with the end consumers.

The legend of mountain bike

Hans Rey, multiple Trials National and World Champion, is one of the pioneers of Trials and Extreme Mountain Biking. Through his spectacular mountain bike trials shows and adventures, Hans has made himself a name far beyond the mountain bike scene. "No Way" Rey has been demonstrating his talents in over 60 countries. 

Hans earned recognition with his jump over a car on the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles, with his volcano dance in Hawaii, his under water bungee jump, or his Machu Picchu Adventure. These unbelievable adventures are presented in a successful video series, while he's also been featured and hosted numerous TV shows and programs.

The Hans Rey Adventure Team was inspired by Hans' desire to utilize his unique mountain biking talents and go outside the competitive arena and explore the world.

Hans is the only permanent member of the Team, all other athletes, photographers and filmmakers change from adventure to adventure.

In 2005 Hans Rey has founded Wheels4Life, a non-profit charity that provides bicycles to people in Third World countries in need of transportation. 

Do not miss the opportunity to meet the rider that changed mountain biking for ever and inspired thousands of people to take their bikes to the mountains and enjoy new adventures!
