Not as hilly but quiet roads away from the resortsQuote from: grounded on January 13, 2024, 12:10:52 PMAs Benny says +1 on bike hire. By the time you factor in paying for the bike box and paying the extra baggage costs its not worth it.
Also you have to partially disassemble your bike and reassemble both ways. Your reliant on some halfwit not breaking your bike as well during transport.
I would say to reserve bike(s) early as they can run low during busy times.
Although most come with a spare tube/levers, i would take a few spare tubes, levers, multi tool and maybe a rear light.
Lanzarote looks like it would be nice for cycling. Tenerife would be tough going surely?

I went through a cryotherapy phase years ago for an injury, nothing but a placebo for the mind, but that has value in itself.20 mins standing in a lake is free

Today had them out in droves. Thanks in advance.As long as you pass us like you would any other car...
If you want to be treated like 'any other car' don't ride two abreast and don't ride in groups.
And since your groups travel at the same speed as an agricultural vehicle, show some courtesy to the trail of 15 cars behind you or the HGV that hasn't a hope of getting past safely, and pull over into a lay-by every once in a while.
When in groups we always single out on narrow roads to allow cars to go past. And we'd pull over if there was traffic behind and we knew the road ahead was winding.
Cyclists are entitled to use the road the same as anyone.
It's usually idiot motorists who cause the danger
Same as pedestrians on the road
Cars aren't trying to overtake pedestrians
You mean in the countryside where there's no path and some header is walking with the traffic?
Nope, I'm talking cars don't have to worry about pedestrians on a footpath, unless they are drunk

Theres never many neutrals that support the Rassies. Very unlikeable fans.
Glen will be a popular champion you would think.
Rassie. You must be listening too much to Ah Ref on X.
The one thing about Brigids, the Kiltoom club always do their talking on the pitch. Young team but they have football in them.
My apologies. Great young team your right. But the Rossies as a rule tend to do a lot of talking off the pitch generally in the stands.
Nothing against the players though. They deserve a better following.
