Cyclo workshops are community spaces where a group of volunteers help you repair your bike. You pay nothing and can use old parts that other users have left there.

Aqui podes conhecer as ciclovias existentes na área metropolitana de Lisboa.

Created and maintained on a voluntary basis by Francisco Seixas, Ciclovias.pt is the largest map of bikeways and cycling infrastructure in the country. The map is collaborative, so anyone can add new bikeways in their area and identify incorrectly mapped infrastructure.

Not exclusively serving the city of Lisbon, Cidade Ciclável is a collaborative map maintained by MUBi (Associação Pela Mobilidade Urbana em Bicicleta), which shows bicycle parking facilities. Any user can leave on this map places where they would like to see bicycle parking facilities installed, helping MUBi to pressure political representatives in that direction.

The National Cycle Touring Network is the best way to discover the country by bicycle. It's a visual guide of more than 200 pages with information on what to see, maps, photos, and lots of tips. It also includes GPS files so you can put it in a navigator and always know the way. This Network, created voluntarily by Paulo Guerra dos Santos, currently has 5283 kilometers and 19 long-distance routes. Buying the guide is one way of supporting the project.

The cycling community is one of the most vibrant in the city. Whether through cyclo-activism, associations, or multiple meeting initiatives, cyclists unite to ask for better infrastructure for themselves and end up engaging with the idea of more humane and sustainable cities.
