Ladies unite on two wheels for this women-only weekly night ride, which has been running since it was started 15 years ago by organiser Teresa D’Aprile. If it’s raining or the roads are wet, stay at home, since the ride will be cancelled. Likewise on the day before a public holiday. 

Tuesday nights at 9pm is the night for experienced gals – it’s 25km with hills.

On Tuesday, the group leaves from Alameda Gabriel Monteiro da Silva, in front of Pizzaria Primo Basílico. Rent a bike and helmet for R$50 by emailing teresaiananoite@hotmail.com.
