Bikefest

Ride, Raise, Repeat

For some, it’s a sport; for others, a charity event; but there’s no denying it’s the most spectacular way to travel to ISE! The BikeFest Spain route takes intrepid cyclists on a ride of a lifetime from Valencia to Barcelona (384 km) over three days, arriving at Fira Barcelona on Sunday, 1 February, right in time for the start of ISE 2026! Ready to join your AV colleagues in raising money for Backup Tech and earning ultimate bragging rights?
