Alaska adventure: grizzly encounter in Stattegg

Share:

If any of you have ever encountered a squirrel at Hilmteich and thought that was exciting, you should keep October 30 free. Because Thomas Widerin, a true extreme bike adventurer from Tirol, is coming to Stattegg to the Mehrzweckhalle and will talk about his solo ride through Alaska.

Kultur in Stattegg invites you at 7:30 PM to his multi-vision show, and it’s not just about beautiful landscapes or nice people you meet when you’re traveling by bike. Thomas not only saw fascinating countries and met extraordinary people, he also pedaled into the world of predators — and came dangerously close to a grizzly. That makes our Graz bike paths almost feel like a petting zoo, doesn’t it?

So if you want to know what it’s like to encounter not only the Schlossberg but also a real bear — and all that on two wheels — you shouldn’t miss it. On October 30 at half past seven in the Mehrzweckhalle Stattegg — an evening that might remind us that our biggest danger is usually just a flat tire.
