A few more requests - the nature and wildlife will thank you and the bike experience will be an even more beautiful:

Please stay on the designated paths!
Please do not leave any litter!
Hikers and pedestrians have priority!
Please ride responsibly and in half-sightedness!
Please ride only a technically perfect bike!

A few tips for safe cycling:

Check your bike's air pressure, spoke tension and brake pads after every tour.
A helmet is a must for every bike tour.
Consider in advance what equipment you need to take with you: warm clothing, rain and wind protection, a repair kit and first aid kit should be in your backpack, as well as a charged cell phone.
