Bike hire
- We ride road and gravel bikes
- You can rent from a few places in Lisbon incuding Lisbon Bike Rentals and Biclas.
- We advise against electric bikes - they are too heavy to carry and go too slow on the flats.
What to bring
- Breathable clothes (we wear lycra, but that's not obligatory, just handy for pockets so you don't need to bring a bag)
- Snacks (e.g. nuts, sugar, bananas)
- Water - don't come without at least one full water bottle! We recommend 2.
- Helmet - You won't be able to ride without a helmet!!
- Sun screen - cycling tans / burns are not sexy.
