What are the main cycling routes, where should I ride and what is the best way to get from one place to the next? 1.200 kilometers of tourist cycle paths offer many options, as long as you get the right orientation.

This is how you keep an overview in the radrevier.ruhr
The node system
The junction system is becoming more and more popular as a guidance system for cyclists. Originally developed in the Netherlands, it also makes orientation easier for cyclists in the Ruhr area. Instead of driving after unfamiliar district names on the signposts, today you simply follow the two-digit junction numbers.
