Rekola, a company running one of the bike-sharing schemes in the capital, has launched a new project for forest bike-sharing. People can now use Rekola's pink bikes in the forests of the Small Carpathians around Bratislava. The initiative has been developed in response to the tightened anti-coronavirus measures and the recommendations that people should get out into the countryside, away from built-up areas.
They have moved a number of their pink bikes to the station below the Červený (Red) Bridge, which is a common starting point for bike tours to the recreational area of Železná Studnička, or further into the forests of the Small Carpathians. The route does not lead through built-up areas of the city and thus bikers are not obliged to wear face masks if they keep a distance of five-metres.
