Does anyone have details for MTB hire in northern Cyprus ( we are staying near Kyrenia - have used a place before but the bikes were old Marin Bobcats and in pretty poor condition - dont want to take our own bikes unless we have to.

Any help would be really appreciated

Can't seem to find Kyrenia on map, but we spent a fortnight near Polis in the NW of Cyprus. Hired bike from Wheelie cyprus, good well maintained Trek 6000, brilliant service from them and really good trails on the akamas peninsula.

Cheers

We have family property up in the mountains in Kyrenia, North Cyprus is an amazing place. A bit qwerky but I love it there. It'll be 30 deg plus weather wise, so it'll be really hot still. I've not done much riding there to be honest, but the military areas are pretty well defined.

Have a look at these guys, http://www.cyprusactive.com/about_us.html they might be able to help with bike hire, routes & riding. They are friends of friends of the in laws. They are Brits and have been running it for a while so might have some good info for you & be able to help with bike hire. You could ride in the mountains for weeks though & never see anyone else!!

Kyrenia is a good place & the harbour is really nice, there's turtle beach, bellapais abbey, St Hilarion castle & depending when you're there, the blue house, but you need your passports & to go onto military property for that but all are great places to see & go. There are great restaurants all over & the food is really amazing. Just watch out for the crazy local drivers!!!
