Bike Academy – Learn, Ride, Experience

The Bike Academy is all about passion, know-how and plenty of fun on the bike. This is where ambitious riders meet real professionals: BIKE editors share their specialist knowledge and teach everything you need for greater confidence, flow and enjoyment on the trails in practical, hands-on workshops.

Workshops for Every Level

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced rider, our varied riding skills and technical workshops offer valuable content for everyone who wants to get more out of their bike.

  • Learn from the best how to:
  • brake correctly
  • set up your suspension fork perfectly
  • fine-tune your drivetrain and gears
  • avoid common mistakes and ride more efficiently

Our experts provide clear explanations, answer your questions and support you directly on the trails or during the technical workshops in the Bike Academy tent, located at the heart of the Expo at the Bike Festival Saalfelden Leogang.

Ride Outs with the Pros

One of the special highlights of the Bike Academy is the wide range of ride-outs. Together with well-known personalities from the bike scene, influencers and our professional riders, you will head straight into the bike park. Here, you will receive valuable tips in real riding situations – approachable, motivating and with an extra helping of fun.

We offer ride-outs in a variety of areas:

  • Downhill: line choice, speed and technique
  • Bike & Yoga: a combination of riding skills and body awareness
  • Pump Track: timing, balance and speed
  • Women’s Rides: by women, for women
  • Kids’ Rides: learning through play and building confidence safely
