Secure your freedom: ADFC Herne offers the last bicycle coding in 2025!
We all know that cycling in the city is a blast. But how well do we protect our beloved bike from theft? In the important matter of securing your bike, an exciting event will be organized by ADFC Herne on September 20, 2025: a Bicycle coding! This takes place on Haydnstrasse and Wibbeltstrasse in Wanne and marks the last coding this year. If you want to have your bike coded, you should book an appointment quickly, because no one wants to wait.
Coding is not only a stylish approach, but also has tangible advantages. Each coded bike is protected by an individual code, making it nearly impossible for thieves to resell the bike. The clever people at ADFC make this possible thanks to over 30 years of experience in bicycle coding. In fact, the code indicates the owner of the bike and makes it easier for the police to match found bikes to the rightful owners. This reduces the value of stolen bikes and makes theft less lucrative.
What you need for coding
In order to take part in the coding, cyclists should ensure that they have certain documents with them. What is necessary are:
- Ein Eigentumsnachweis, wie Kaufvertrag, Rechnung oder Quittung.
- Ein Identitätsnachweis, etwa Personalausweis oder Reisepass.
- Ein ausgefüllter Codierauftrag ist hilfreich, aber nicht zwingend notwendig.
And the whole thing has its price: 10 euros for ADFC members and 15 euros for non-members. A small investment for great security, you could say!
Why coding is so important
A heavily coded bike is a real guardian angel against everyday theft. But why is this so important? Cyclists and pedestrians are often unprotected road users because, as we know, they have no crumple zone! It is all the more necessary to drive with foresight and think carefully so that you do not become a victim of theft and accidents. Good coding not only ensures safety when cycling, but also protects against the dark side of road traffic.
One thing is clear: If you are still hesitating, we can only advise you to make an appointment quickly! Registration takes place via the ADFC homepage, where you can also find all information about technology and coding locations. A free service that can provide multiple protections!
Ultimately, coding is more than just a nice touch - it's an important step towards keeping our roads safe and keeping the worries associated with cycling in the city at bay. So, pack your documents and be there on September 20th – your bike will thank you!
