🚴♀️🍃 Hey, visionaries on wheels! 🌄🌿
Today’s route takes us deeper into Cantabria’s natural soul, from Sarón to Liérganes and then Rubalcaba, we cycle not just through roads, but through moments of pause and reconnection by the serene waters of the Río Miera. 🏞️✨
This journey is a reminder that nature isn’t just a backdrop for our activism, it’s a partner in it. We rest where the river breathes, we observe how these green spaces invite us to rethink the rhythm of our lives, our cities, and the spaces we demand for people-powered mobility. 🌍💭
While winding through lush landscapes and tranquil rest zones, we reflect on the freedom and accessibility that cycling can bring to all communities, aligning our steps with the European Declaration on Cycling and the shared dreams of youth inclusion and sustainability. 🚲🛤️
This route is a celebration: of natural beauty, of reclaiming space, and of creating a Europe where moving differently means living better. 🧡🌿
Let’s keep rolling! hearts open, wheels turning, dreams growing. 💫🌐
4. Environmental impact, local business, and cycling-related jobs.

We passed by some local cafés and shops in Liérganes. I think this kind of route could really support small businesses if more people started cycling here regularly. Maybe in the future, a small rental point or repair station would make it easier for more people to join.
The streets are very narrow so the traffic jum happens especially during the weekend.
There were a lot of cars parked in the city centre which was very ugly to see.
We could definitely reduce car use by promoting cycling.
the largest trade takes place in Lierganes, being a very well preserved village and tourist destination. You could sponsor more perhaps, and possibly add a bike tool shop or points to repair your bike

However, to encourage more riders to visit, villages need better facilities like bike racks and clean water fountains.</p>
