Bikes

Cycling in the Netherlands is very common and nearly everyone has a bike. Cycling is the best way to get around the city of Maastricht so we recommend either buying or renting a bike when you arrive. If you are from a country where cycling is not very common, you may feel overwhelmed with the cycling culture. Here we have a list of biking rules, an explanation of bike parking in the city, what to do if your bike goes missing and some instructions about what to do with your bike when you’re leaving Maastricht for good

cycling while drunk

If you’re cycling home after a night out, your legal drinking limit is approximately two glasses, or 0.5 BAC. If you go over this, you could get a fine or a driving ban for a few hours. The fine is decided on a case-by-case basis.
