28.04.2024

For a quarter of a century, motorcyclists have been meeting at the "Anlassen" motorcycle service at the Nürburgring for their traditional season opener. Just in time for the 25th anniversary, there was a record number of visitors. Over 45,000 bikers came from all over Germany and neighboring countries. To ensure that there was room for everyone, this time not only the Grand Prix paddock was opened up as a parking area, but also the start and finish straight of the Grand Prix circuit. So there was plenty of room for the motorcycles and small talk among enthusiasts. The emotional highlight was the joint parade around the Nordschleife - another well-established tradition. Once again this year, thousands of bikers rode along the world's most famous 20.832 kilometers at the end of the event, creating impressive images. Shortly beforehand, they had received a blessing at the ecumenical church service. But the day was also dedicated to motorcycling. While younger visitors were able to try out small motorcycles in the children's area of the POLO motorcycle brand, adults had the opportunity to test their bikes on the test stand. At the same time, the ADAC Driving Safety Center at the Nürburgring, the Rhineland-Palatinate state police and the German Red Cross offered exciting presentations and demonstrations. Not far away, the Medical Center attracted numerous visitors, where director Armin Link provided fascinating insights behind the scenes of the race track hospital. After "Anlassen", further motorcycle events await at the Ring this year. With the International German Motorcycle Championship (IDM), from 30.08. to 01.09., the ADAC/DMC Race Weekend, from 10 to 11.05. and the "Kölner Kurs" (12.05.), a series of further two-wheel highlights are scheduled at the Nürburgring this year.
