Summary

Cycling together on a duo bike with someone who no longer wants or can cycle alone, that means fun and exercise in the open air!

Detailed description

Fietsmaatjes is intended for people who enjoy cycling, but no longer want or are able to do so on their own. Together with volunteers, they set out on a duo bike with electric pedal assistance. The volunteer steers and the guest can pedal along at his own pace. This way you get moving and social contact is also promoted.


The frequency of the cycling trips is determined by both parties in consultation. Our goal is to install a duo bike in a number of neighborhoods and to recruit and match volunteers and guests per neighborhood.

Getting there

The duo bikes will be parked at central locations, including in Loosduinen.
