Riders from all over Europe gathered at Lake Faak, in Austria, for the 19th edition of the biggest motorcycle meeting in the world

Sunday, 11th was the last of the five days that saw the beautiful surroundings of Lake Faak, in Austria, filled with motorcycles and bike lovers from all over Europe for the European Bike Week 2016. Over 100k participants gathered for the biggest motorcycle event of the year, most of them Harley-Davidson riders, to display their motorcycles to fellow bikers and live the American dream on two-wheels.

The most awaited attraction has been the Harley Village, a huge space used to present new bike models, replacement parts, Harley-Davidson branded accessories and clothing, and more. In the Village also took place the Custom Bike Show, dedicated to the best custom bikes of Europe which competed for the awards in ten different categories. Participants had the chance to see the huge Fit Shop stand, the H-D dealership and the Customizer area, one of the most successful spots.
