Good day, all. I've just joined Cyclechat, and looked through a number of posts. My husband and I are in our 60s, live in suburban Colorado, and bike around our town on errands, to church, to get groceries, and just for fun. A while ago we bought a pair of Bromptons which we pack up in Vincita travel bags and take on trips. We especially like to go on cruises with the bikes, and get out of the congested port area. Last summer we took a cruise to the Baltic and rode all over Stockholm, Tallinn, Visby, Gdynia, Riga, and Helsinki. Most recently we went with family to Wales and rode there--the most fun little ride we took was from Llandudno (where we stayed) to Conwy Castle. Big fun for us!
We have a cruise planned for January from Barcelona around the western Mediterranean. I'm not having a lot of luck finding off-street cycling paths / routes in the cities we are scheduled to visit, namely Marseille, Genoa, and Naples. Is that because there aren't any bike paths or bike lanes? Does anyone have recommendations for fun and safe routes in or near those cities, say 10-20 miles long?
My husband has some mobility issues, so walking tours are not really an option for us. On a bike he is himself again. And if he's happy, then I'm happy.
Thank you in advance. I am grateful to have found this cycling community.
