What to expect

You'll collect your bike and protective gear from the shop in central Madrid, just steps from Puerta del Sol metro station. The city centre's pedestrian-friendly 30 km/h zone means you'll share space with other cyclists and locals rather than cars. Use the downloadable map as a starting point, but the route is entirely yours—ride to major landmarks, duck into neighbourhoods, or simply meander through plazas and gardens. The Retiro is particularly rewarding by bike. Eight hours gives you ample time for a leisurely morning or afternoon of self-directed exploration without rushing between tourist checkpoints.
