What to expect
You'll start with a brief orientation on the e-bike and VR system. The route covers key Madrid locations where you'll stop, dismount, and don the headset to see how that exact spot looked centuries ago—architectural details, street layouts, and activity rendered in detail. The pace alternates between riding stretches and stationary VR viewings, so you're not pedalling continuously. Expect moderate exertion; the e-assist helps on inclines, but you're actively steering and balancing. The three-hour format allows time to absorb each historical layer without rushing.
