Possible on selected corridors and the riverside, harder on steep cobbled streets and busy avenues. Use a bike with gears, lights, and a lock. Shared bikes and scooters cover short flat hops; they are weak on long climbs with shopping bags.

Helmets are wise even where not mandatory. Watch tram tracks and wet granite.
