Club Brugge Foundation and Club Brugge joined forces to get as many fans as possible to the stadium by bike on Saturday, July 22 during Club Brugge's Bruges Metten and Season Kick-Off.
More than 15% of fans responded positively and placed their bikes in one of the provided bike racks.
FCBike was created by Club Brugge Foundation. The intention is to allow as many fans as possible to descend by bike to the Jan Breydel Stadium at home games, not only at the Brugge Metten but also in the future.
Extra bike racks were placed for the occasion so that there was certainly enough room for every bike. In addition, each cyclist received an exclusive FCBike cycling badge.
Fans who do not live within cycling distance of the stadium were also encouraged to come by bike. Thus, 4 P&Rs were presented, each with the best bike route to the stadium.
Jenny and husband Luc: "We had thought about trying this before, but we never got around to it. Thanks to the P&Rs and routes suggested by Club Brugge, it was made very easy for us. In just under 20 minutes we were from our car at the stadium. Soon a traffic jam-free return also awaits us. We will definitely do it again!"
Before and after the Bruges Metten, Club Brugge also organized the annual Season Kick-Off. A fun party with performances, a kids' village, signing sessions and fun attractions.
During these festivities, 2 fun bike rides were also set up where fans could put their cycling skills to the test.
