BIKE RENTAL DURING COVID-19

After 2 months of confinement, we are able to move around a little bit more and it seems like people have found a new passion for running and cycling.

Indeed, we can see that the bicycle is a way of moving well suited to this coronavirus crisis. As indicated below, the practice of cycling reduces the risk of contamination, allows to respect the minimum social distances, to avoid the congestion of our cities, to relieve public transport, to strengthen our immune system and to improve quality air.

Marty Bike Rental has therefore tried to learn as much as possible in order to offer you a bike rental system that meets current requirements. A charter so that you can enjoy the beautiful bike ride around the Basque coast in complete safety.

We contacted the French cycling federation to help us set up the arrangements.

OUR BIKING ADVICE DURING COVID-19

In addition to the advice of the French cycling federation, here are some tips that we can give to customers who come to rent their bike equipment with us this summer.

We will try our best to show you the bike rides that avoid overcrowded places.

We will offer you our electric bikes fitted with a surf rack to make your trips even more secure when you go surfing (all our surfboards for hire are visible here). Using a bicycle to go surfing is a good initiative not to gather in parking lots.

We advise you to respect (even more) the distance rules for overtaking other bikes on the roads and the rules specific to covid-19:

- To overtake, respect an offset of at least 2 m

- Roll in single line with a safety distance of 10 meters between each cyclist

- Respect barrier gestures

We will be open from June 1st at 111 avenue de Biarritz, 64210 BIDART and will continue to deliver free of charge throughout the Basque Coast.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding your next bike rental.
