World Cycling Forum: Capitalising on the current bike boom

BERN, Switzerland - Registration is now open for the 2021 World Cycling Forum (WCF) being held on 6 and 7 September 2021 in Munich, Germany. The 2021 WCF comes after a period of unprecedented global demand inside the bicycle industry and during a challenging time for the bicycle business as they grow and adapt to the new post-COVID-19 normal.

The 2021 World Cycling Forum succeeds the two previous editions in Porto, Portugal and Rotterdam in the Netherlands. The main theme of the two-day international conference is this year: “Capitalising on the Current Bike Boom”.
