European Bike Week Falk am See 2017 is starting again.

First photos from Wednesday, the weather has been pretty good so far, only late in the evening it got really wet again. It's hard to say, the event area at Harley Village was well filled, but there was plenty of air on the street around the lake. They could still use a few nice Harleys. Many particularly beautiful Harleys could already be seen on the road around the lake.

In the livestream you can see how it goes halfway around the lake, I will broadcast again on Thursday from Harley Village.

The guided tours 

A special tip for those who would like to discover the area in a group. The Alpe Adria Chapter offers guided trips. There is a pagoda in the Customizer Area in Harley Village where you can register.  

The really big tour is the “Three Countries II Tour, Austria, Italy, Slovenia), approx. 250 kilometers in 9.5 hours, an El Dorado for motorcyclists.

For example, there is tour 4 on Friday, which is called: “Peters Coffee, (Carinthia, Villach-Turrach) Length: 145 km Start at 1:00 p.m., return around 5:00 p.m. This four-hour tour is one of the smaller ones, there are also some that last over 9 hours, it's best to get information directly at the stand.

Flat track races

To mark the milestone anniversary, Harley-Davidson is now bringing what is probably the most popular track sport in the USA to Carinthia for the first time.

The fascinating spectacle takes place opposite the Demo Ride Area on Seeufer Landstraße. In addition to the registered journalists and Harley-Davidson authorized dealers, brave bikers are also allowed to get into the saddle at certain times under the expert guidance of the Flat TrackSchool (charges apply).

The machines are converted Stree Rod models powered by the Revolution X engine, which forms the basis of the XG 750R's racing engine.
