Just as the great capitals of the world, that have already adopted the bicycle as a sustainable and healthy means of transport, Buenos Aires has been on the same path for already many years.

Currently, the city of Buenos Aires has more than 200km bike lanes, very well connected one to each other.
So you can commute from very distant points, riding exclusively by bike lanes.
Besides, by the beginning of 2018, traffic in the area known as “Microcentro” was reduced.

This change made the area much more pedestrian friendly.
