FAQ
Can you bring your dog? It's up to the dog owners to determine what their dog can handle. But it should be noted that trolleys are not silent, and some dogs may find it a bit uncomfortable. But please feel free to come and try a few meters before deciding to bring your dog.
Do children have to wear helmets? No, it's not a requirement, but a recommendation. Cycling a trolley is not 100% risk-free, but if you follow our safety rules, it should not be a problem.
Can you drink alcohol? We discourage any consumption of alcohol due to the safety risks that may arise. If we see that someone is too intoxicated, we will not send them out on the track.
Do you have to go the entire way? No, you don't have to. Many of our customers go about half the way before turning their trolley around and cycling back. Another option is to book transportation for the trolley (additional transport fee applies) and then take the bus back.
