- Bicycle-hire companies that provide good-quality bikes and ensure a breakdown assistance service.
- Tourist offices that will provide you with specialist cycling information, a list of approved bicycle-hire companies, a bicycle repair kit if necessary, and a place where you can park your bike securely, with a water supply close to it.
- Tourist sites that put at your disposal a place to park your bike, a water supply and specialist documentation on the cycle route.
