Mountain biking in Turcifal, Portugal

Tufty63

My wife has booked a 10 day break in Turcifal in mid August. Spa treatments for her, horse riding for my daughter, Golf for me :oops:
I need to find somewhere to hire a bike and guide for a couple of days in or around Turcifal, can anybody suggest anyone, anywhere or anything?
Thanks for your help.

http://www.motovedras.com/ In Torres Vederas that may be able to help on the hire front and try asking here http://www.forumbtt.net/ on some local info/ guides.

Get your wife to drop you at the top of Serra do Socorro and you can blast down the downhill track and explore the single track in amongst the Ecalyptus, location here http://www.flashearth.com/?lat=39.01777 ... =0&src=msl a glimpse of what to expect here http://www.pinkbike.com/video/70640/.

You will probably find most guided operations operate in and around Sintra/ Lisbon that's about a 30 minute drive from Turcifal
