The ADFC Wednesday cyclists in Wiesbaden

Weekly after-work tours from April to October

From April to October, the ADFC Wiesbaden organizes its after-work tour every Wednesday for all ADFC members who want to enjoy their deserved after-work together with others on the bike. These after-work tours of the "Wednesday cyclists" are guided tours and last about 3 hours (incl. stopover).

Start: Wed, 5.30 pm (Oct. 16:30) at the Schillerdenkmal (Warmer Damm) behind the Staatstheater.

Wednesday tours are exclusive to ADFC members. Anyone can get a taste of it – with regular participation, the ADFC membership is a prerequisite for joining the race.

The after-work tours are usually led by a different ADFC member every Wednesday. The tour destination usually determines the tour guide.

Usually, about 25 to 30 kilometers are driven on a Wednesday. It all depends on the route and the destination. This means that all participants should have a basic condition or a bicycle with at least 7 or 21 gears.

It is driven at a normal and not too high speed. For larger climbs, the group waits together until all participants have moved up and rejoined. During the journey, sufficient drinking breaks are made.

After the stop, the group also drives back together in the direction of Wiesbaden. However, not to the starting point »Schillerdenkmal« but everyone leaves where he lives or where the way home is the shortest for him.

The conditions of participation in an ADFC festive evening tour

Only those who bring a road-safe bike to the tour can participate. Light, brakes and the bell should definitely work. It is advisable to always have a suitable spare hose, rainwear and a drinking bottle with you.

Each participant must abide by the traffic rules and drive at their own risk.

If you do not follow the traffic rules during the tour or otherwise become conspicuous and possibly endanger other passengers, you can be excluded from the tour by the tour management.
