Reasons to Visit Sicily by bike

FIVE REASONS TO VISIT SICILY BY BIKE

The weather: In Sicily the warm weather comes early and leaves late. You can ride a bike for most part of the year, roughly from March until December.
Nature and variety of landscapes: Nature seems to have endowed all its wonders to this land: mountains, hills and above all the sea, with its incredible colors, its crystal-clear water and the beauty of its seabeds, in no way inferior to those of other seas.
History: Wherever you turn you will see evidence of Sicily’s 3,000 years of history as the strategic crossroads of Europe. Nowhere else have Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Normans, French, Germans, Spanish, Italians, and even the British, left such an enormous collective legacy. The island is a vast open-air museum, a testament to nearly every Mediterranean civilisation of the past.
Culinary tradition: The exuberance and warmth of the island of Sicily is evident in its food as well, which tells of Sicilians' passion and care for good food and genuine flavors. A wide array of appetizers to whet your appetite, from rice croquettes to cazzilli and crispeddi of Catania, before tasting rich first courses and fish or meat dishes. And finally, one should not pass up the famous Sicilian pastries, mainly prepared with ricotta cheese and almond paste.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site: Sicily, with its treasures of historical, cultural and natural importance, boasts 7 sites listed in the World Heritage List.
