Overview

Join me to cycle through unique trails in the Middle of the World. We will begin our adventure in Quito towards the community of "Guachala" where the equinoctial line crosses.

We will also visit pre-Columbian archaeological sites that were used by our ancestors as astronomical observatories wich offer us incredible views of the Cayambe volcano.
We will visit all these beautiful places by bicycle along a route of approximately 25km full of history and adventure. After the biking we are going to visit one of the bigest craftmarkets in south Amrerica, "La Plaza de los Ponchos" where you can find a lot of handycrafts made in Ecuador.
