Cyclotourism, as a way to maintain and promote health and sustainable transport, imposess itself increasingly lately both locally, nationally and internationally, in the context of a pressing economic crisis, of an increasing fuels price, of the greenhouse gas emissions from transportation and, not least, of the increasing levels of obesity.
