When you get on, lift your foot to the other side so that your feet are on
either side of the bike. Take a seat on the seat system.

Stay seated upright at all times and keep your feet on the pedals. Even
when you brake or stand still.

Descend a slope at a moderate speed so that you can always come to a
stop in time and in a safe manner.

Wear an appropriate bicycle helmet.

Wear reflective clothing to increase your visibility on the road.

ADVICE FROM RICHARD

 

When cycling, steer with your arms and not 

with your body. Cycling into corners takes some getting used to. In order 
to maintain stability, lean your body slightly towards the inside of the 
bend. Avoid sudden and violent steering movements. In this way you 
can avoid accidents and damage.

Parking brake activation

Boarding and cycling

bike safely so that the bike remains stationary. Apply the 
parking brake by squeezing the right brake lever (of the 
rear wheels) and then press the locking pawl. If the hand 
brake is now released, the parking brake is on.
To release the bike from the parking brake release the 
parking brake, briefly squeeze the brake lever. Put it in 

Adjust your speed before turning so that all wheels stay on the ground. 
Leaning in helps with this.

first gear (if important) so you can pedal more lightly. As soon as you are seated 
and want to ride, remove the bike from the parking brake.
