Bring your bike to the train, attach the bike by hanging it onto the rack (see picture). We recommend that you lock your bike as well.

Keep in mind that we cannot guarantee that you will get a seat in the same coach as the bike rack, so make sure to first get on where the bicycle rack is located (usually in the front or rear of the train) and then continue to the coach where your seat is.
