Lenzerheide will be transformed into Switzerland's largest bike testing ground from September 19 to 21, 2015: as part of the testRIDE, brand new bikes and parts for the 2016 season can be put through their paces on the trails around the testing ground at the Rothorn valley station. Over 40 exhibitors with a total of 100 brands will be presenting their innovations for the coming season at the testRIDE at the Rothorn valley station. There are not only mountain bikes to choose from, but also e-bikes, racing bikes, trekking bikes and a whole host of components. The Swiss bike industry will be represented at the Lenzerheider Stelldichein almost without interruption and the exhibitors range from A for Absolute Black to Z for Zimtstern.

Until now, the Monday of testRIDE was reserved for representatives of the specialist trade. This exclusivity has now been lifted and everyone can let off steam on the test trails for three days.

Test trails for every style
Visitors can choose from a variety of routes for optimal test rides. All of them start and end at the test site and are signposted accordingly. The freeride and downhill routes ride through the Bikepark Lenzerheide. There are also test tracks for racing bikes, e-bikes, cross country and enduro bikes.

Access to the test area and testing is free of charge, but registration is required. This is possible on site upon presentation of an ID card or passport. The test site is open to the public on Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 9.30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Steep like a rocket on Saturday evening
On Saturday evening, the legendary testRIDE party will be taking place. The rocket on the event flyer sets the theme, space is the motto and the clothes, headgear and accessories must be adapted accordingly. The DJs Drifter & Mortensen will provide the right sound, and the place to be is the Obertor bar in Parpan.
