20/04/2023 3 tips for traveling by bicycle in Lanzarote
William Faulkner, the American writer, said that a country was better known by the soles of one's shoes than by the wheels of a car. Paraphrasing it, we would say that you know a country more deeply with the wheels of a bicycle, and that is why a rental bicycle in Lanzarote is perfect for exploring this wonderful island of our geography.
 
Cycling is a noble sport, and in recent years it has experienced sustained growth in various parts of the world. So much so, that there are international cycling routes, so that anyone who wants to travel by bike can do so with all the comforts.
 
At Papagayo Bike we want to give you some advice if you decide to travel to Lanzarote and get to know its rural towns, its fantastic beaches and its delicious food.
 

3 tips for traveling around Lanzarote by bike 

1.Rental bike in Lanzarote 

It can be quite cumbersome to travel with your bike and all the equipment by plane. Although many airlines provide enormous facilities to do so, since today numerous cycling teams travel to different destinations to train or participate in competitions.
 
However, if your plan is not exactly to race in the main cycling events but to maintain your training or pedal calmly on perfect roads, our first recommendation is that you do not carry your bike on your back, but rather rent it.
 
Because? Mainly, you avoid excess luggage and eliminate the possibility that your bike could be damaged by something (which doesn't have to happen, but accidents happen).
 
Booking a rental bike in Lanzarote is much easier, and you can even configure it so that when we take it to you wherever you say it is completely ready. Furthermore, if any mishap happens to the bike during the tour, we have a mechanical service that solves everything, anywhere on the island.
 

2. Plan your route… but not too much 

Life is full of unforeseen events, and that's why we plan things, to leave nothing to chance. However, surprises are the spice of life. If you want to get to know Lanzarote, make a plan to explore it by bike and discover some of its best cycling routes.
 
Its warm and sunny climate almost all year round is one of the reasons why cyclists choose Lanzarote, so they can pedal in any season . And its roads and secondary roads are in perfect condition.
 
What do we mean? That you can plan your vacation days with a different route each day, but leaving room for you to discover the real Lanzarote .
May one day you go out without having a predetermined direction, and be dazzled by what does not appear in a tourist brochure.
 
Explore secondary roads, go off route, improvise. Everything you can discover with a bike is exactly what will impact you the most.
 

2.Document. Be careful. Hydrate 

It's three tips in one. Document the trip, your routes, the landscapes that appear (Lanzarote is a place of extraordinary beauty).
 
If it rains, which it can, be careful. Rain can make it difficult for car drivers to see, so it is best to dress in a bright color and turn on your bike lights.
 
And last but not least, remember to hydrate well during the tours. If you don't have a cycling or running backpack, bring a bottle of water so you don't get dehydrated, and energy bars to keep you going.
