KAA Gent discovers Ghent by Bike

On Wednesday afternoon, KAA Gent’s players and staff had a bike tour through the city centre of Ghent. Leaving the training centre, the Buffalos biked through the beautiful city centre of Ghent.

The tour was led by Hain Vanhaezebrouch, who introduced the players and staff to the new circulation plan of Ghent.

Not only during the city tour it became obvious that Danijel Milicevic was without doubt one of the best ‘Biking Buffalos’. Already two years ago, KAA Gent made a report with him called “Tour de Gand: Biking with Milicevic”. It was published in Kaa Gent’s club magazine Wigwam.

This bike tour gives also support to KAA Gent, as the largest ‘Biking club’ from Belgium. Since the Ghelamco Arena has opened, biking and sustainable mobility has strongly been promoted among the supporters. On average, more than 2500 supporters are coming by bike to each home games.

The integration of one of the biking Buffalos is also being recognised by the European Network ‘Healthy Stadia’. On 27 April 2017, one of the employees of the Community departement of KAA Gent will be attending the Healthy Stadia Conference and give a presentation.
