This measure will allow the authorities and emergency services to focus fully on managing the ongoing fires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are sincerely sorry for this situation and for the disappointment it may cause. Nevertheless, this decision is necessary in view of the exceptional circumstances currently affecting the region. In this difficult context, we would like to express our full support to the authorities, emergency services, teams deployed on the ground, and everyone directly affected by this situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will shortly communicate the arrangements regarding purchases related to the event (parade, tickets).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We sincerely thank all participants, visitors, volunteers, partners and teams for their trust. We hope to welcome you back in large numbers next year for a new edition of the Bikers\u2019Festival, under better circumstances and always united by our shared passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you all for your understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Bikers\u2019Festival Team<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear participants, dear visitors, In view of the exceptional situation caused by the wildfires currently affecting the Hautes Fagnes region, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16792,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16795","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":{"vhrs":false,"show_group":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
