Biking in Peru




Looks like there could still be some biking for us in Peru, even in Lima. Bikes can be rented for $3.00 per hour. Tours of Lima with guides are also easily arranged. No recumbents though, just mountain or hybrids or these pictured. I am not sure what you call them.

One site I looked at had this ad for a half day's activity:

"Bike Tours of Lima – Best Way to See the Peruvian City
A bike tour of Lima is a great way to see the city. There are several companies in the city, however, Bike Tours of Lima, based in Miraflores at 150 Bolivar St., is accessible by foot from many hotels. The most popular tour is the Coastal Tour. The 3.5 to 4 hours trip stops in Barraco, Chorrillos and Miraflores. There are plenty of stops for photos, where the guide offers information about the city. The $25US price includes a light lunch at a local cafe."

Maybe on one of our Monday's we'll go biking.
