w. Hints for Cyclists.
Cyclists resident in Berlin must be provided with a permit (to
be obtained from the district police authorities), but for a short
visit that is not necessary. The rule of the road in Germany is the
reverse of that in England; riders keep to the right side of the
street in meeting, and to the left in overtaking traffic.
In Berlin the following streets are closed to cyclists, but may be
crossed: Unter den Linden (including the Pariser-Platz and (he
Lustgarten), Friedrich-Strasse (from the Leipziger-Str. to the
station of the Stadtbahn), Leipziger-Strasse (including the Spittel-
Markt and the Potsdamer-Platz), and Potsdamer-Str a sse (from
the Potsdamer-Platz to the Potsdamer-Brilcke).
The business offices for Section 20 of the Deutsche Radfahrer-
