On your bike! Arnie gets back to nature in Salzburg

It would be fair to say Arnold Schwarzenegger has had a rather tumultuous time of late, but he's gone back to nature - and his home country - for some mood-boosting outdoor activity.

The former governor of California took to two wheels and enjoyed a scenic bike ride with friends in the beautiful countryside surrounding Salzburg this week.

The city of Salzburg has repeatedly been distinguished as the most bicycle-friendly city in Austria.

A fully-developed bicycle path network leads cyclists in and around Salzburg. Over 170 kilometres of attractive cycle paths with 900 signs, 23 scenic bicycle routes through the city, 5,500 parking spaces and self-service stations offering free tools, bike stands, lubricating oil and compressed air for emergencies make Salzburg Austria's number 1 cycle city.

The bicycle network encompasses the entire city; contra-flow cycling is possible in 83 one-way streets.

So if he wants a bit of bike time, Arnie's in the right place!
