Tens of thousands of cyclists, 13 cities, one motto: "The future is cycling." The ADFC is putting more rallies on the road in 2026 than ever before and wants to make it clear what it expects from politicians: continuous cycle paths, safe junctions, fewer cars.

From May to September, the demonstrations will roll across Germany. Itzehoe and Düsseldorf have already kicked things off, and now it's back to the drawing board. Berlin is celebrating a milestone anniversary this year: the capital's 50th rally. The final event will take place in Bremen at the beginning of September.

ADFC national chairman Frank Masurat summarises the issue as follows: "We want to cycle and we want to cycle safely. This requires continuous, protected cycle paths, safe intersections and a clear redistribution of road space in favour of climate-friendly mobility."

The World Bicycle Day on 3 June, which accompanies the rally season, provides an additional tailwind. For filming around the day of action, the ADFC recommends the rally on 31 May in Hanover, followed by a bicycle festival.
