News from Sanlucar 7.7.12

A new way for tourists to see the sights of Sanlucar called "Cicloenobar" is being tried out using a vehicle called a "Bicibar". It consists of a bar on wheels powered by its customers who sit on bicycle seats and pedal. The initiative is being "peddled" by one Jorge Diaz of www.bicibarcostaluz.es and has aroused interest from Sanlucar... Descubretela (the local tourist agency) and Bodegas Argueso. Apparently it has already been successful in many other European cities after its initial development in Germany.

In Sanlucar there will be two ticket options; the "Standard" which comprises two-and-a-half to three hours touring,  driver/guide, bar, snacks, music, fairy lights and karaoke, not to mention insurance. The other option, the "Jamon" includes all the above plus a leg of serrano ham.


I just hope there is a third option: to enjoy proper Pata Negra ham and Manzanilla in a tabanco and then just walk to all the bodegas without karaoke and fairy lights!
