Bike Test Stargate

3 weeks of commuting using an e-bike? Participate in the Bike Test!

The Bike Test is a Stargate campaign to motivate more employees to cycle to work. In a three-week trial period, you can try a e-bike, e-cargo bike or speed pedelec for your daily commute. Experience yourself how pleasant it is to cycle to work.

Every employee working at Brussels Airport can participate. The bikes are of excellent quality and come with large bike bags. You can choose from four different types of bicycles:

• The electric city bike ‘Oxford e-bike’ offers pedal assistance up to 25 km/h.
• The electric cargo bike ‘Urban Arrow Family’ offers pedal assistance up to 25 km/h and comes with a covered bench to transport 2 children.
• The speed pedelec ‘Riese & Müller Nevo4 vario HS’ and ‘Oxford S pedelec D1125’ are fast electric bikes. Ideal for long trips. The driver is required to have a valid driver’s license B or AM. A bicycle helmet is mandatory and can be borrowed.
