Teed Up

We have a bike rack for the back of the car,take them down to Canela, park up and off we go flat all the way to the Rui,bars and resto's for a drink,and even showers along the route to cool off,great fun.

Noticed on our last visit,lots more people out on bikes round Esuri,but can be very hilly,the hill up to the guadiana market from the roundabout is a killer,coulnd'nt speak for tens mins after peddling up there.

You could have cycle route's marked out with the degree of difficulty shown by colour?,.

He delivers as well

And just for purely selfish reasons why not branch out into quad bikes as well, we could have done with some for the younger visitors a few weeks ago.

Good idea!!!!

Jur

Thanks for the suggestions, I´m out of money now to buy anything else!

SharonB, Did you not try to contact Rumbosur or the other place I posted about? Just wondering if they´re operating yet and what they charge.

Opening my stand/stool/kiosk in Islantilla this Saturday....
(oooops, advertising!)

Sharon B

No, too much hard work trying to find a new place with a car full of teenagers.

Barbara Red lips

How delightful... the roar of quad bikes... that will liven Esuri up..

MikeCol

Yes, and even better the deafening roar of jet skis down the Guadiana and the buzz of microlights overhead

Carol&John

Scooters would be good too!

Sharon B

Ooops I wasn't thinking to use on Esuri. We have hired them before in the winter to take to the beach. Bit of a hazard on the roads within a populated area.

Is the bike hire available for the summer months?

Jur

Who did you hire them from, Would like to have a go in September....

Jur

PM on it´s way.........

Hi Jur

ANY new business idea for Esuri would be welcome, whether another resto/bar etc. or a new business like bikes.

As you know there are guided walking tours called striders and strollers that seem to be doing OK... so general bicycle hire with also some guided tours of some beautiful areas may be a good idea.. Especially if you can take people by car to the all the areas and natural parks surrounding us. Inland and on the coast in 2 countries.

I dont know however what the business plan would be relating to long periods in low season where you wont get a lot of customers.

Re the shop - run by a super guy called Jose Manuel and we really enjoy having a beer on the terrace there - its 2.25 for a big bottle 1 litre - cheaper than anywhere else (in a bar) and you often get a good crowd there, and great views. Also if people are prepared to pay a suplement to have the convenience of something local for the last minute stuff, and saving a trip into town.... why not?

Good luck, Jur if you decide on this venture - the more businesses on Esuri - the better!
