The Portuguese Oranges 🍊

These vibrant colored and delicious fruits are typical to be found whilst cycling in Portugal. Eating one of these during a ride will give you the boost that you need! 🍊

One of the many reasons why Portugal is the best place to cycle! 😍

In Portugal 80 to 100 tons of oranges are picked everyday. It’s in the south of Portugal that the majority of these delicious fruits are cultivated! 🤩

Did know that in Bulgarian and in Turkey they call oranges by ‘portukal’ and in Romanian they’re called ‘portocala’, both meaning Portugal! 🇵🇹

As laranjas portuguesas 🍊

Esta fruta de cor vibrante e sabor delicioso são típicos de ser encontrados enquanto andas de bicicleta em Portugal! Comer uma laranjinha durante o teu percurso vai dar-te o boost que precisas! 🍊

Uma das muitas razões que Portugal é o melhor sítio para andar de bicicleta! 🇵🇹

Em Portugal 80 a 100 toneladas de laranjas são apanhadas por dia!! É no sul de Portugal que estás curtas delicisosas são cultivadas em maioria. 🤩

Sabias que, os bulharíamos e os turkesed chamam as laranjas de ‘Portukal’ e na Roménia chamam a laranja de ‘portocala’, ambas palavras significando Portugal! 🇵🇹

🏰 MÉRTOLA 🏰

Have you visited? 🧐

This strikingly beautiful town overlooking the Rio Guadiana in the south-east Alentejo is near the Spanish border.

Its one of our favourite destinations for our cycling tours, as the surrounding roads and tracks make it perfect for road and gravel cycling - well away from the more popular tourist destinations!

🇵🇹 MÉRTOLA

Já visitaste? 🤔

Esta vila portuguesa lindíssima que está localizada no Rio Guadiana na zona sudeste do Alentejo, perto da fronteira da Espanha!

Esta vila é um dos nossos destinos preferidos para fazer as nossas visitas guiadas de bicicleta! As estradas e trilhos fazem com que seja perfeito para ciclismo de estrada e cascalho - muito distante dos destinos de turistas mais populares! 💚

Hi there! I’m Fiona. Welcome to my page 👋

I’ve lived here in the Algarve for 6 years permanently, and the move was the best life decision I have ever made! It’s such a beautiful and rich country😍

Living here and being apart of the Portuguese community is a gift, and the people I’ve met along my journey of living here have been the biggest support! Échappée wouldn’t be what it is today without you all! 💙

If you are interested in cycling, gravel, bikepacking, Portugal or a combination of all of the above then you’re in the right place!! 😌

We provide tours, adventures and bike hire all over the Algarve and into other regions in Portugal, specialising in gravel and road cycling 😊

If you’re wondering what it’s like to be in Po

If you’re wondering what it’s like to be in Portugal during the months of January to March, then here it is! ☀️ ☀️

Portugal is known for their ‘all year round’ summer and it’s warm winters and we’re here to tell you that it’s not a myth!

As you can see, our winter isn’t very winter-y, here we enjoy the nice warm sun and bright blue skies ☀️🌤️

Although, beware ‼️It’s very cold when it’s not sunny and temperatures can reach down to 3° during the night, for the Portuguese these temperatures are no joke!

BUT, if you’re looking for blue skies, sun and cool temperatures for cycling, Portugal is the place to be! 🇵🇹

🇵🇹🇵🇹

Se estás a ponderar como é o tempo em Portugal nos meses de Janeiro a Março, aqui tens! ☀️☀️

Portugal é conhecido pelo seu ‘verão de ano todo’ e os seus invernos quentinhos, e nos estamos aqui para confirmar que não é um mito!

Como consegues ver os nosso invernos não são típicos invernos, aqui nos desfrutamos de um solzinho quentinho e céus azuis ☀️🌤️

MAS, fiquem abusados ‼️quando não faz sol, está um frio do caraças! As temperaturas conseguem atingir os 3° durante a noite e para os portugueses isto não é uma piada 🥶

O nosso inverno é o verão dos ingleses, enquanto eles andam de calções e sandálias nos morremos com cachecóis e luvas 🤣🤣
