On January 23, 2014 it's that time again! Then the oldest and at the same time most important German 6-day race begins in the Berlin Velodrom. The two German football legends Franz Beckenbauer and Uwe Seeler will give the starting signal. Both are close friends of sponsor Axel Lange, Generali Versicherungen. For six days, the most traditional sporting event in Berlin will then be waiting for you with an attractive program of top-class sport and entertainment.
"Our Sixdays have been promising top sport, a great atmosphere and a good mood for years"
“We are delighted that Franz Beckenbauer and Uwe Seeler have agreed to attend. Our long-standing partner Axel Lange was able to persuade his two friends from his playing days to officially kick off the event. For years, our Six Days have promised top-class sport, a fantastic atmosphere, and great fun, and we are once again relying on this winning combination in January ,” says Reiner Schnorfeil, Managing Director of Berliner-6-Tage-Rennen GmbH. “Thanks to the active commitment of our sponsors and business partners, which often goes far beyond financial support, we are able to organize this fantastic sporting event year after year.”
The sporting top stars include the current Madison world champions Morgan Kneisky and Vivien Brisse from France, the German top sprinters Robert Förstemann, Rene Enders and Maximilian Levy as well as crowd favorite and stayer champion Florian Fernow from Berlin.
