New Portal: Multi-day bicycle touring in Europe

ThimbleU

I'd like to introduce a young portal for touring cyclists. The portal focusses primarily to cyclists using gps devices for navigation. But it provides valuable information for all kind of touring cyclists.

On biroto.eu you will find at present 235.336 km of cycle paths in Europe, official trails, as well as tours by members of the biroto community.

For each cycle path there are an interactive map and an elevation profile of the cycle path, the GPS track for download, information about cyclist-friendly accommodations, sights and other infrastructure along the bike trail. All information can be printed as a tour book and is the guide for your tour.

You can register for free. The usage of the services will not be charged.

And if you will not find the tour of your ideas in the 235.336 km, you can plan an individual tour using bitoro.eu.

biroto.eu is a portal for participation. Similar to a wiki, all members of the biroto community can contribute for the benefit of all:

• upload gps tracks of your own tours,
• add or adapt descriptions of bike routes and tours,
• plan stages and generate detailed maps of the destination in the tour book,
• add cyclist-friendly accommodation,
• add and adapt other infrastructure (e.g. bicycle repair shops, ferries, ...),
• create your travelogues.

To find the routes or tours you are looking for there are two pages which support this:

• a list of routes and tours ordered by country
• an interactive map with routes and tours

The portal software supports English and German.
