Rome is not a city for cyclists.

The comparison with the best known European capitals is merciless. Only a few kilometers of cycle paths allow the few Roman cyclists to travel safely.

However, there is a cycle path that cuts the city in two, like a bisector. Starting from the GRA, it runs along the banks of the Tiber river, passing through the historic center and reaching the other side of the capital.

A journey that few citizens know entirely, the Tiber Cycling Lane allows an overview of the Eternal City. From periphery to periphery, passing through the extreme center.

Abandonment and neglect merge with the omnipresent glorious past, creating a particular painting, populated by its peculiar flora and fauna.

The initial feeling of irritation soon turns into a warm sensation.

Indeed, this is a love story.
