Bicycle transportGenerally: The VRR transport companies are happy to transport your bicycle. However, in the interests of all passengers,this can depend on the time of day, traffic conditions and the space available. Therefore please contact your transport company in advance regarding any rules and restrictions thatmight apply to bicycle transport. If you would like to take a bicycle with you within the VRR network, you generally needto purchase a ZusatzTicket (additional ticket). However, withsome tickets, bicycle transport is included with the ticket. On pages 14 and 15 there is information about whether you may take a bicycle with your ticket at no extra charge or whether you need a ZusatzTicket (additional ticket). A FahrradTagesTicket NRW (bicycle day pass) can be used in combination with VRR single tickets or season tickets, as well as all other tickets in the NRW-tariff.

KombiTicketThe KombiTicket combines the ticket for admission to an eventwith a ticket for transport on the VRR network. If you attend events such as conferences, concerts, sporting events or amusement parks, then in some cases your admission ticket also serves as a bus and train ticket.

It is easy to find out if this is the case just by taking a look at your ticket. If it is also valid as a KombiTicket, this will be writtenon the ticket.

The tickets are valid on the day of the event and are good for the trip to and from the event location. You can obtain your KombiTicket from the event organiser or its vendors and at allsales point that have a KombiTicket logo.
