We are very happy to inform you about a new, third BIKE Festival in 2018. The well-known MTB-location Saalfelden Leogang will be the venue of a BIKE Festival for the first time.

The SPORTOGRAF crew did lie in waiting a lot at this year's BIKE Transalp powered by Sigma; on the mountains, at the tracks and down in the valley finally coming home with tons of photos.

Thousands of shots full of emotions and action are now available for purchase. Get your personalised package HERE.

True to the motto that the end of a race kicks of the training for the next one, Race Organisers have also confirmed the date for the 21st edition of the MTB classic through the Alps.
