Bicycling

We start our tour at the **northern end of the Steinspornbrücke**, an ideal starting point for exploring the Lobau. **Route and terrain:** The tour takes us through the beautiful nature of the Lobau, part of the Nationalparks Donau-Auen as well multiple farmfields in the south-western Marchfeld. The terrain consists of **90% gravel and crushed stone paths**, which vary in thickness. It is therefore important that your bike is suitable for such conditions (e.g., **gravel or mountain bike**). The route is very flat. **Length and pace:** The total distance is approximately **35 km**. We will ride at an **average minimum speed of 21-23 km/h**, which is a moderate pace for experienced cyclists. Please only participate if you feel fit enough to do so! **Sun exposure and breaks:** A major advantage of this tour is that **70%** of it is in the **shadow**, which is particularly pleasant on warm days. About halfway through the route, we have the opportunity to **refuel our water bottles** at the **Radlertreff Hermi**. **Distance:** 35 km **Elevation gain:** close to none **Maximum elevation:** N/A **Tempo:** 21-23 km/h **Link to the route:** https://www.bergfex.at/sommer/wien/touren/wanderung/5288930,lobau-and-beyond-gravel/ **Notes:** Please bring enough water and maybe a small snack. A helmet is recommended for safety reasons. Before the tour, check that your bike is in good working order (brakes, tires, gears). Let's enjoy a sporty bike tour through the Lobau and beyond together!

**Let’s kick off Oregano’s first gathering! We’ll meet at a cozy Italian restaurant in Vienna’s 8th district. Expect delicious food, good conversation, and a relaxed evening of meeting new friends. Each person will pay for their own order, and we kindly ask everyone to order at least a drink. Let’s eat, laugh, and start this food journey together!**

**Roots: Memory, Migration, Nature & Belonging** This workshop explores how our memories, identities, and sense of belonging are shaped by the plants and climates we grow up with, and how these relationships change through experiences of migration, movement, and transformation. Whether migration is across countries, cities, languages, or social environments, we carry traces of these places with us, often in ways we do not immediately recognise. Grounded in queer ecology and theory, this workshop approaches nature as a space that challenges fixed categories and celebrates diverse ways of relating, adapting, and existing. **Queer Ecology, Memory, and Migration** Drawing from writers such as Sania Shah and Jessica J. Lee, alongside examples of queerness in flowers and plant life, participants will reflect on their own connections to place, memory, and movement. Together, we will explore questions such as: * What do we carry with us when we migrate? * How do plants, landscapes, and climates shape identity? * What traces of former homes remain with us? * How do we create belonging in new environments? * What can nature teach us about adaptation and transformation? **Creative Reflection and Making** Participants are invited to identify a transformational plant, flower, tree, or natural element that holds personal significance. Through storytelling, group discussion, painting, and speculative making methods, we will explore how reconnecting with these plant memories can help us understand where we come from, how we identify ourselves, and how we root ourselves in the places we inhabit today. Together, we will imagine and create small portable objects inspired by these plants and memories. These creations may become: * Personal holders * Necklaces * Keychains * Magnets * Pins * Other everyday companions These objects will serve as small reminders of memory, movement, belonging, and transformation. **Community, Anti-Racism, and Collective Storytelling** The workshop also engages with themes of anti-racism, the right to existence, community-building, and collective storytelling. Through rounds of sharing and listening, participants contribute to a supportive environment where personal stories become a starting point for understanding broader experiences of belonging, migration, identity, and difference. Sharing personal experiences is welcome but never required. Participants are encouraged to engage in whatever way feels comfortable for them. **Who Is This Workshop For?** This workshop welcomes: * Migrants and refugees * Diaspora communities * LGBTQIA+ people * Artists, writers, and creatives * Nature lovers * Community organisers * People interested in identity, memory, and belonging * Anyone curious about migration, ecology, and storytelling No prior knowledge or artistic experience is required. **Accessibility Information** This event takes place at Villa Vida Café, Linke Wienzeile 102, 1060 Vienna. Accessibility features include: * Step-free entrance * Wheelchair-accessible ground floor venue * Accessible toilet * Seating available throughout the event * Quiet spaces available upon request * Service animals welcome * Free drinking water available If you have specific accessibility requirements, please contact us before the event and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

And in case that doesn’t really tell you what to expect, just think short intervals of exercise combined together in a playful and interactive way to help you strengthen your body in a sustainable way while allowing you to meet new people (and often even forget how hard you’re working out). As a reminder for those nervous about their fitness level: Everything we do, we do with all fitness levels in mind; so the exercises are always adjustable to your level and you’re always strongly encouraged to take it at your own pace - I mean, we’re not called My Pace for nothing!

Here a link to the location on Google maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/QdRPEaYTiavZbmVW7 Cost: In the interest of inclusivity, we've decided to make our sessions donations based here, so you're invited to pay what you can afford. If that actually makes you more uncomfortable and doesn't make it easier to come, know that we've received donations from €2 to €20 and they all made us very happy, because our primary goal is to get people moving and to show them it can be fun all in all. The money is secondary. One other thing that’s useful to know: - In the case of bad weather, we do have a back-up location that will protect us from the rain. Should we need to move, we will change the location of this event here.

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :) We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast! Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in Schönbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz

I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. The fee per player will be €10.00 for 2 hours. This will also cover the feather shuttles used during play. Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.
