Biking, biking tours in an ecological way
Two works, with 1.873 kilometers spread over 45 routes, passing through the most emblematic areas of the Community
Suitable for younger fans, who do not have a vehicle for transportation, or for those others who do not wish to use it when traveling.
In order to practice sports in contact with nature in a totally ecological way, we offer you a series of routes, designed by Thomas Lorenzo Velayos, what pThey can be carried out on foot or by bicycle with the common link of using the train as a means of transport. All of them have their beginning and end in train stations, which makes it possible for young people who lack alternative means of transport to travel, or for those other fans who do not want to use the car, especially on weekends.
All the layouts are collected in two works published by the Community of Madrid, bicitren y Bicitren 2, including 1.873 kilometers Distributed in 45 tours with different levels of demand for all types of fans, in addition to 5 "mini tours" suitable for children. All of them are limited to places close to the Renfe Suburban and Regional Network in our region and neighboring provinces. Both works can be downloaded in digital format and totally free from the Virtual library Publicamadrid.
BICITRAIN
The first of the works, called BIKE, contains 21 tours to be carried out on foot or by bicycle using the train as a means of transport, covering a total of 707 kilometers. The routes are distributed through the most emblematic areas of our region, with special emphasis on the Sierra de Guadarrama where the most popular places for fans are crossed. There are itineraries for all types of levels, either by distance or difficulty (accumulated unevenness).
The entire BICITREN work can be consulted in digital format on the Publicamadrid website.

The train as a means of transport
The train is an ecological vehicle that allows, in our region, the realization of multiple routes. Renfe's extensive Commuter and Regional Network is perfectly suited to the needs of bicycle transport. In this section you can consult the different lines that make up the Network, as well as schedules, rates and useful information for the traveler. Most units have places to transport bicycles, so we must consult the existing regulations.
