S1waterbike has been a presence in all Romanian national fly fishing competitions starting in 2003 when we offered the first water bike as the main prize. In partnership with Clubul Muscaricilor Timisoara, we offered a water bike as the main prize for Romania’s leading fly-fishing competitions: National Fly fishing Championships and the 3 Lakes Cup.
