The 5th Vienna Harley Days will take place from July 19 to 21, 2013
Sissy, Sachertorte and Schönbrunn - If all you can think of when you think of Vienna are iconic clichés, you only know a small part of the truth.
Austria's capital is as edgy as it is creative, as stylish as it is self-confident - and Vienna has an event that is second to none: the Vienna Harley Days.
Because Harley-Davidson this year also 110 years There is definitely more than one reason for fans of motorcycles, music and good parties to pay a visit to the metropolis from July 19 to 21, 2013.
It doesn't matter whether you come on a motorcycle or bicycle, by car or on foot, because everyone is welcome at this major event. In 2013, the event will once again take place in the heart of the city on the Danube Island near the Reichsbrücke bridge and, as in previous years, admission is free.
Harley riders from other (federal) states have the opportunity to travel together as part of the big rally called „Capital Ride“.
In the tent city „Harley Village“ you will not only find food and drink in the style of the house Harley-Davidson but also the latest models made in Milwaukee as well as clothing and accessories related to motorcycles. Chilling, marveling and „talking gas“ are the order of the day as bike after bike rolls by - and you realize that no two are the same.
If you're in the mood for a dose of adrenaline, visit the hot Stunt shows from Motorcycle Acrobat Rainer Schwarz, and all those who want to get into the saddle themselves can enjoy the free test drive auf einem der neuesten Harley models.
Those who are (still) without Motorcycle driver's license is the authentic Jump Start driving simulator - a fully functional, metal frame mounted on a metal frame. Harley-Davidson - and you won't be able to get rid of the big grin on your face when you accelerate, brake and change gear.
Meanwhile, cool bands take to the microphone on the large open-air stage and underline the unique atmosphere that only Harley-Davidson can provide.
If you're not tapping along, you're deaf!
On Sunday Finally, the bikers form up for a parade along Vienna's 5.3-kilometer Ringstrasse, traditionally acclaimed by the Viennese and numerous onlookers, whose monumental splendor from the State Opera to the Kunsthistorisches Museum presents the world of the Habsburgs, a world of seeing and being seen in a flourishing art and cultural scene - after all, a little cliché never hurt anyone ... Vienna remains Vienna, and that's the beauty of it!
