General information
Participation: Free walk-in, free of charge and no registration. Arrival and departure at the Noorddam Center, Noorddammerweg 1 in Amstelveen.
Boarding: All groups gather outside. Note the colored helmets in your choice of favorite group and departure time. Bike pumps are located near the door. Park bikes in the area marked with cones. Racing bikes can be parked in the Noorddam Center.
Risk: Participation in this event is at the participants' own risk.
Group Safety: Preferably for the safety of yourself and others, wear a bike helmet, a yellow vest and use a bike mirror.
Guidance: Each group will have two guides: someone to set the route and speed and a broom bike. Both wear a helmet with a rain cover in the color of their group. The broom bike has a pannier for emergencies (first aid, repair kit, bike pump, dry cloth, bottle of water, dextrose and repair gloves). Racing cyclists do not have a pannier (own equipment).
Latecomers: These can request the route of their favorite color from manager Hans and can cycle it in the opposite direction. They will meet their group about halfway and can rejoin.
En route: In case of calamities the group will continue cycling and the broom bike will stay with the calamity. The cyclists involved in the calamity try to solve it independently. If they cannot, they can call:
- Unwell or injured: call 911
- Cattle trappers have their own emergency number
- Amstelveen Sport for pickup with van during bike 4-day event
- Bicycle damaged or flat tire: ANWB bicycle assistance and become a member immediately
Weather conditions: In case of strong wind or rain, there will be no cycling. The North Dam Center will be open to meet then, however.
