Event recap · CycleSummit 2016
12–15 March 2016 · Murcia · Costa Cálida (ES)
In March 2016 the seventh CycleSummit travelled to the south-east of Spain. Tour operators and destinations met in the city of Murcia, rode along the Segura river and on the Vía Verde del Noroeste – and discovered a region that offers sunshine for cycling while much of Europe is still in winter.
Hosts were the city of Murcia and Costa Cálida – Region of Murcia. [Heiko: venue of the marketplace.]

7th CycleSummit
[number of companies]
Day by day
The first participants explored Murcia by bike along the Segura river in the late afternoon, followed by the welcome dinner in the city.
A day in the saddle: the group rode the Vía Verde del Noroeste, a former railway line with tunnels, through fields and vineyards of the Murcian hinterland – with lunch along the way.
A paella cooked at the table for lunch, and in the evening a guided walk through the old town – from the cathedral square to the Teatro Romea.
Presentations and an open-air workshop on the hotel terrace rounded off the programme. [Heiko: speakers and topics.]
