After the incredible success of the first edition, Istra Float Weekend is back for another epic adventure! From July 18th to 20th, 2025, Onewheel riders will once again take on the beautiful coastline of Slovenia, Italy, and Croatia, with a focus on long group rides, underground racing, and an unbeatable community atmosphere.
Main Mission: Ride Hard, Float Far, and Soak in the Vibes!
- Expect long-distance group rides – From casual no-charge chill rides to multi-stop endurance challenges spanning 50km, 80km, or more.
- Underground Racing is back! – Over 15 different underground race tracks to test your skills.
- Trails, coastline rides, and more – Download Ride Hermes to explore the planned routes.
What to Expect?
