Essential principles to understand charges in ECOBICI
ECOBICI has established itself as one of the most popular mobility alternatives in the city, thanks to its numerous personal and environmental benefits. Opting for a bicycle instead of a motor vehicle not only promotes a healthier lifestyle, but also contributes significantly to the environment, especially during times of high temperatures. However, so that each trip on ECOBICI is pleasant despite the heat, keep the following tips in mind.
1. Hydration
Although ECOBICI rides are usually short or medium (up to 45 minutes), it is essential to maintain good hydration, especially in hot climates where we lose fluids more quickly. Therefore, we recommend that you bring a bottle of water or a drink with electrolytes with you and drink regularly during the tour.
2. Sun protection
It is very important to protect your skin from the sun’s rays, so always consider using sunscreen and some type of ventilated clothing that covers your arms and legs. You can even consider using a special helmet for this weather to cover your face.
3. Plan your route
Try to make your trips in the early hours of the morning or at dusk, if this is not possible, look for routes with more shade. The ECOBICI app is a useful tool to plan your trip.
By choosing the bicycle as a mode of transportation, we actively contribute to improving air quality and reducing traffic congestion, giving our city a break. So take these tips into account to continue enjoying riding with ECOBICI in these hot months.
