Roads in Sri Lanka are just perfect for cycling tours. Its little bit different from other. Here you will find many big roads that connect to the main cities and then a lot of small secondary roads with local traffic. Small roads are more preferred for cycling because of less traffic. But if you are going with a racing cycle then these roads are not good for that as they are little rough as well as unpaved. For tour cycling, it is more than perfect.
- Traffic
As compared to other Asian countries Sri Lanka traffic is rather OK. Big cities are often congested and at times chaotic as well. But people are very considerate; they will not mess up with cycle riders. The only vehicle that creates a little problem is the buses as they never drive slowly and drives almost like maniacs.
- A lot of cycle mechanics along the way
The cycle is a very common mode of transport among Sri Lankans and also most people use it as leisure activities. Therefore, there are a large number of mechanics present and many are available in the roadside itself. Any problem with your bike they are there with a solution so that you can resume your cycle tour.
- Beautiful places with several sightseeing
Sri Lanka is full of amazing spots for riding cycle. As you ride your cycle in these places you will get to see mind-blowing sceneries, food shops and refreshing stalls. Negombo is a good place for riding cycle where you will get away from the main road and ride in the small road along the ocean, where you can see many people fishing and growing coconuts. The centre of the country contains many mountains although you have to climb a bit, but the roads are well paved and quiet.
- Best season
The best season to go for Cycling in Sri Lanka is between Novembers to march. It is usually a dry season and east coast is in its best during this time. If you are from colder countries then this time will be better to go for cycling as it is warm there.
