Bike Path Maps (Bogota)

As today is the day without car here in Bogota. I was wanting to find out if there is an online map of the bike paths for Bogota. Does anyone know of one? If so could you post a link or a scan?

Cheers.

Johnny,

Ciclovia is the weekly Sunday-Streets program. The Ciclovia network maps is *road* closures.

The bikepaths are called *CicloRutas* = 340 kms of off-road bike paths.

The free tourist map you get from tourist information on plaza bolivar has all of the cicle routes on it.

I know it was meant to be car free - it didn't seem so car free to me.

It did to me. I ragged my moto all over, got some wind in the hair for a change. Ironically because there is normally so much traffic, I normally use the bus.

Seriously. There are cycle paths in Bogota?
That sounds so civilised. I live in Cali and the nearest thing to a cycle path is the Mio - a poor mans version of your Transmilenio, which only runs for a couple hours a day. But you have to share it with busetas, taxis, motos and pedestrians.
I knew I should have lived in Bogota.

Leave the big stick at home...carry a cannon!
