| Danube Bike Path - A bike tour to all the family
tour started 2008, submitted 30 June 2011 language: pt
Danube river is 2.900 km length, it crosses eight countries and it flows into Black sea. The bike path that follows the river is Europe's most famous and most loved bike trip! Along the way there's a unique natural, cultural and historical richness. Furthermore, the bike path has a lot of infrastructures designed for cyclists and you can chose between north or south bank of the river. Probably, there aren't many places in the world where travel by bike can be so pleasant and so easy! And where you can enjoy so much the landscape and places to visit. This trip which I describe was done between Passau (in Germany) and Bratislava, via Vienna. |

| From Amsterdam to Brugges
tour started August 2008, submitted 15 May 2011 language: pt
From Amsterdam to Brugges This was a travel I made in 2008, from Amsterdam to Brugges. This trip was perfect to understand how Holland manages space to give priority for bicycles. We also could count the windmills that were appearing on the way, and fell small near the huge dykes. And, finally, we felt (on the legs) that Holland is really flat. |

| Rediscovering the Portuguese Coast
tour started 2007, submitted 31 March 2011 language: pt
Trip made in 2007 from Oporto to Lagos: 663 kms cycling and discovering the Portuguese coast. We have a fantastic climate, beautiful landscapes, tasty meals... If the Portuguese coast was provided with a bike path in its totality, it could become one of the best cycle-tourist itineraries of summer. Anyway, I promise you: if you try it, you‚ll want to repeat it! |
