I'm all about nature, adventure and saving money! Is renting a bicycle a good idea? I wonder how the roads are in Mykonos and if people respect bikers. Any advice would be great! Thanks

Truthfully I don't know how to answer this question having lived in Mykonos for 25 years... but I wouldn't ride a bike there...the roads are narrow,if you decide don't even think about this in July/August, they are very impatient drivers,I don't want to mention how many fatal accidents I have seen in my time there..I'm all about nature, adventure and saving money!

Unfortunately I've heard the same thing...the roads in Mykonos (and many small Greek islands) are just terribleTruthfully I don't know how to answer this question having lived in Mykonos for 25 years... but I wouldn't ride a bike there...the roads are narrow,if you decide don't even think about this in July/August, they are very impatient drivers,I don't want to mention how many fatal accidents I have seen in my time there..
There is only 1 main road which connects the whole island,some steep hills too.There used to be bike tours a few years ago but I don't know if they still do them.The next best option would be a 4 wheeler,or a motor bike....The best way would be to join a cycling club where the group would ride together, that would be advisable.
This is true,be safe when visiting, life is too precious to be hit by someone you might never see again....go with the flow ..... when you are on the islands, surely you will see bikes for rent, then no harm in just renting for the day and just pedal around to take in all the views, different than actually cycle tours or long distance alone or couple., you know what I mean!?.. Good day from Thailand..Unfortunately I've heard the same thing...the roads in Mykonos (and many small Greek islands) are just terrible
Fantastic video.... Terrific content,I think I recognize the rider who has a bike rental.....The last downhill is one of the steepest slopes of Mykonos..... extremely dangerous if the bike looses control.....I know all the roads which will help anyone thinking of cycling along these narrow roads,in winter this would be heavenly.... Thank you kindly...Kalley Mera from Thailand..This video will give you a good idea of what biking in Mykonos is like! Be safe!
Absolutely, renting a bike in Mykonos is a brilliant idea! It's the perfect way to embrace nature, have an adventure, and keep your expenses in check while exploring this beautiful island.
