Santas in Limassol don't need Rudolf – they ride bikes!

When these Santas pass along, you hear bicycle bells, instead of reindeers’. In this city, everything is done different, more impressive and certainly more fun. Limassol's crazy bikers dressed as Santas are going out in the streets. So, if on December 23rd you hear some festive songs, laughs and rattles on the road, you know that this Christmas bike parade is probably somewhere near you.

Of course, if you want to sing carols in a different way this year, you just have to become one with dozens of Santa-bikers. On the way, the bikers' group will be accompanied by the musical sliding trolley of Limassol's Cycling Club, playing Christmas songs. Participants should be dressed as Santa Claus or with any other Christmas decoration, in harmony with the decorated town.

Participants are encouraged to bring any unusual type of bicycle. Apart from the Limassol’s Cycling Club, this year in the company of the Christmas Ride will also be CUT’s Cycling Club, the bike rental company Nextbike as well as the Friday Night Bike. 

All bicycles must have front and rear lights. For the ones who don’t have a bike but want to participate in the ride, Nextbike offers bicycles free of charge. The ones interested should make a reservation on time at 97 873 299.
