Fellows Ride Vienna – 2026
Fellows Ride Vienna 2026 – With an Open Visor for Mental Health
The Fellows Ride Vienna enters its next round and is set to become a permanent fixture of Vienna’s biker scene. Under the motto “With an open visor for mental health”, motorcyclists will ride together through the Austrian capital on 26 September 2026 – a peaceful demonstration on two wheels that raises awareness of depression and collects donations.
Beneficiary: iwik – Association for Improving Quality of Life
The donations from Fellows Ride Vienna 2026 go to iwik, the association for improving quality of life. The dedicated helpers at iwik support people who no longer know where to turn – directly, immediately and effectively. At Fellows Ride, riding motorcycles and doing good go hand in hand.
Taking Part
Anyone with a passion for motorcycling can take part – it does not depend on the brand, but on the shared cause. Participation is free of charge. Those who wish to can donate on site or online via betterplace.org.
Fellows Ride Vienna is also looking for supporters, multipliers and co-organisers who are connected within the Vienna scene and would like to actively help shape the ride. Those interested can contact Dieter Schneider at ds@fellowsride.de.
Schedule and Route
Detailed information about the start, finish, route and exact schedule will be communicated on the official website and via the Fellows Ride newsletter as soon as it has been confirmed. The demonstration is accompanied by the police, who ensure a clear run. All details are subject to official approval.
