Bikotel ...

Do you know this Portuguese project? If the answer is no, it is time to share with you...
It consists of a network of sensitive´s lodgings to the use of bicycles. After all, who does not like to travel and use bicycles on vacation?
Therefore, this selection translates into hotels whose services are specially created, thinking about the needs of those who want to ride a bicycle (road or mountain).
For this reason and to maintain the quality, some of the criteria must be required to participate in this network, such as:

. Bike secured garage;

. Bike washing facility;

. Cyclist menu (carbo,fruit and veggy);

. Overnight cycling clothes laundry;

. Mini-Bike repair station with basic tool set and pump;

. Bike parking lot;

. Bike routes for road and/or mountain biking (with maps,technical data and GPS tracks)

If you want to travel around Portugal, and trust in the hotels that will give the bike ´s conditions, they made a selection that you can see in their website. They also have at your disposal a set of partners, that can make your life easier, when you need to rent a bike, have a workshop service or buy a product in the place where you are on vacation.
