From October 14-16, the first country-wide eMTB enthusiasts' gathering took place in Belmonte. The event, organized by Belmonte Hotel***** and Bike Garden Service, was a unique opportunity to test the capabilities of electrically assisted bicycles and spend a weekend full of attractions in the exceptionally picturesque surroundings of the Beskids. Participants had the chance to meet professional bike guides, check out high-quality equipment and sports attire, and experience the extraordinary atmosphere of the Belmonte hotel in Krynica-Zdroj.

The main point of the gathering was a scenic tour on electric eMTB bikes by Specialized and PIVOT. Professional guides from the Electric Tours project took care of adjusting the bike to the user, including setting the suspension stiffness according to the user's weight. Participants were trained in the safe handling of bikes in the mountains, and during the tour itself, they learned the correct riding technique. On the following day, tours were organized in smaller groups.

An additional attraction of the gathering was a meeting with exhibitors of Polish sportswear brands TYGU and Runo Design, as well as the opportunity to take test drives in fully electric Mercedes-EQ cars. Each of the gathering participants received a rich bike set: an EVOC PRO bike hip pack, a Jersey type sport shirt from Runo Design (dedicated to the participants of the gathering) and specialized brand bike socks.

The highest level of integration and unforgettable atmosphere of the event was provided by Belmonte Hotel. The participants of the gathering were treated to a ceremonial dinner with a bespoke menu by Chef Mirosław Jabłoński. From the beginning of its operation, Belmonte Hotel has been promoting the idea of active recreation in the mountains. The hotel's offer includes an electric bike rental and personal biking trail advice depending on the level of experience. In the hotel's Bel-E-Bike rental, guests can use mountain e-bike hardtail and fulltail for adults, adolescents, and children, as well as all necessary accessories. The natural surroundings and numerous biking trails of varying difficulty levels are the perfect place for cycling enthusiasts.
