In the green tourist area of the province of Bolzano, tourists have electrically assisted bikes available to move from one arrival station of the four cableways to the other, at a height of two thousand meters in the South Tyrolean Dolomites. This was reported by the newspaper “La Repubblica”.
The world’s first mountain bike sharing service was activated on Saturday 7 July. “We are the first”, confirms to the newspaper Andy Varallo, son of the ski champion of the seventies and president of the SkiCarosello consortium, which owns 29 ski lifts in Alta Badia, and vice president of the Dolomiti Superski. “It is a new element for our tourist offer – continues Varallo. – We address first of all to those looking for a comfortable way to move on our plateau and then to those who want to try the taste of pedaling in the mountains, on easy routes and with the help of the electric motor “. In fact, the bicycles are electric, ie equipped with a motor that “assists” the pedaling and the six-speed gearbox.
The system is a true bike sharing. So the only obligations are to return the bike to any of the four cable car stations and to do so by 5.30 pm, that is, in time to get off with the last ride. In fact, it is not possible to keep the vehicle for more than a day. And you don’t have to work hard: both in the cable cars and in the chairlifts you can take your bike with you, a service that is also available for bikers who use their own vehicles. Prices: the first three hours cost, all inclusive, 5 euros each. Four hours start the half day (18 euros) while the full day costs 30 euros.
