Cycling Lecture

Did you know there are more bikes in The Netherlands than people? Cycling in The Netherlands is a way of life. If you are new to the country and are curious to learn the rules and tips for cycling in The Netherlands, then this information session is for you. The aim of this lecture is to provide useful and practical information to help international TU Delft staff members and their partners, ensuring they are prepared for cycling in Delft and its surroundings.

The online lecture will consist of:

a) teaching general information about the Dutch cycling culture and history
b) rules of the road
c) good practices and behaviours
d) right of way laws
e) maintaining a bicycle

The lecture will allow participants a detailed understanding of the rules and theories associated with cycling in the Netherlands.

During the interactive lecture, attendees are free to ask any related questions and join in the discussion.
