Awards will be presented in three categories at this year's Bike Festival in Riva. We show the candidates in the running. The winners will be announced on the first of May.

The Bike Festival Riva has a long tradition. In addition to numerous mountain bike manufacturers who bring test bikes, there is an MTB marathon, an E-MTB challenge and other exciting challenges.

Of course, not only mountain bikes, but also accessories can be found in the exhibition areas. The gravel trend cannot be overlooked in Riva either. This is also reflected in the awards, because in addition to the Innovation Award and Sustainability Award, a separate Gravel Award will also be presented.

The picture gallery above shows all the award contenders.

Do you fancy a MTB festival but aren't in Riva this weekend? Then Willingen is the place for you:

Sandra Schuberth, sometimes an after-work ride, sometimes a training ride, sometimes an unsupported bikepacking challenge. The main thing is her and her gravel bike - away from the traffic. Seven Serpents, Badlands or Bright Midnight: she has finished challenging bikepacking races. Gravel and bikepacking are her favourite subjects, and her demands on equipment are high. What she rides, uses and recommends has to stand the test of time: not in marketing, but in real life.
