Public bikes for the city<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Encicla is the public bike system<\/strong> of the Aburr\u00e1 Valley, inaugurated on 2011. It is a proposal to position the bike<\/strong> as the sustainable, healthy, eco friendly and economic transport method that it is.
For this reason, it is part of the SITVA<\/strong> sustainable transportation system (Sistema Integrado de Transporte del Valle de Aburr\u00e1). Indeed, it now counts 51 stations and a total of 1300 bikes.<\/strong> So it actually boosts the sustainable transportation project of Medell\u00edn. However, you can only enjoy the free rides if you have the C\u00edvica card<\/a><\/strong>. So you need to get it first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Civica card is the card that gives you access to the ENCICLA bike System in Medell\u00edn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
