From relay point to relay point

To transport your team from relay point to relay point the team captain has to rent a mini-van for 9 persons. During the race, the participants who are not running or cycling at that moment, drive with this minivan from relay point to relay point. You can find the car route in the participants book. Please note that every team has the responsibility to rent a mini-van for themselves, the organization of the Batavierenrace will not take care of this!

To the restarts and finish (bus plan)

During the race your team uses one minivan to transport the runners from relay point to relay point. To make sure that the runners from the next shift are on time at the next restart, you can use the bus plan. This is a transportation arrangement, in which coaches will bring participants to the restart points Ulft and Barchem to start their race, and runners who finished their shift to the finish in Enschede. To use this bus plan, the team captain needs to order special bus tickets.

Bike

The runner will be accompanied by a cyclist from your team during his or her session. Therefore you need to rent a bike. The Organizing Committee can arrange this for you, which will cost €9,-. You have to pay a security deposit of €50,- as well, which will be returned to you after returning the bike. The team captain is responsible for buying these tickets.
