Bremen is the birthplace of the ADFC. The General German Bicycle Club was founded here in 1979.
On April 18, 1979, traffic consultant Jan Tebbe and 17 other cycling enthusiasts founded the General German Bicycle Club (ADFC) in a very informal setting in his living room in Bremen. Their primary goal was to create a political counterweight to the powerful automotive lobby groups.
On October 26, 1979, the ADFC Federal Association was entered into the Bremen Register of Associations.
In June 1980, the ADFC (General German Bicycle Club) was registered as an advocacy group with the German Bundestag (Federal Parliament). In 1981, the Bremen bicycle station, the first of its kind in Germany, was founded. The ADFC's operation of a bicycle station with a bicycle parking garage and workshop is unique.
