Taking your bicycle with you

Would you like to take a bicycle along with you on an international train within Europe? And does this involve a normal bicycle, a mountain bike, a racing bike, a reclining bicycle or a tandem? Then you can do this in the trains that are provided with a space specifically designed for this purpose. If you take along a bicycle from the Netherlands, this costs € 12 (for a single trip) / € 24 (for a return ticket).
