Cycling in Madeira - Portugal

A super quick ride on this pearl of the Atlantic Ocean, between Pico do Areeiro and Funchal (quick jump to Câmara de Lobos).
I hope to return and do a full tour around the island. Thank you Rui for your tour!

Fun fact, there used to be a cycle path in 7:03 right where you're riding. They removed it right after PSD, famous for their love of bicycles, took back control of the town hall.

[@onecyclistinlisbon]

ahahaha I imagine

neat

[@luisvasconcelos1053]

Algumas marcas de bicicletas costumam vir à Madeira testar os novos modelos, como a orografia consegue ser bastante diversa permite testar num só lugar evitando a logística de ir a muitos lugares para os mesmos testes.

Love such places. It looks very similar to Gran Canaria islands. Really beautiful!

[@soterman77]

Oh wow, this place looks amazing!!!

[@isabeloliveira2165]

Well you shouldn't go in the levadas at all where there is narrow passages and cliffs and you putting in danger the hikers . Happen to me in a hike from Portela to Maroccos Machico their was a very clear signal saying no bicycles and cyclists . This levadas never been built to doing this type of activity cycling and it is very clear when you hike in them narrow passages near of cliffs and no space for a bicycle .

[@madeiraislander]

yeah bikes in levadas isn't a good idea, it's dangerous for everybody.

[@isabeloliveira2165]

@@madeiraislander Last time that did happen it was very danger and for the cyclists wasn't a big deal when it was very clear in the begin of trail a signal no cycling allowed

[@madeiraislander]

@@isabeloliveira2165 Yeah I've seen it a few times as well. :\ I'm from Madeira :) Some companies are starting to sell bike tours that include cycling in levadas, it doesn't make sense.

[@onecyclistinlisbon]

I can imagine that Isabel. Actually the one we took was large enough to see hikers and surpass with ease and safely.
