Can anyone tell of a bicycle hire firm in Carvoeiro, I have friends who may be coming over later this summer who may like to hire bikes?

Sorry Morag, I don't actually know where the shop is. But if you navigate through the website click prices, then terms and conditions, you'll find a phone number.

Have fun

Bob T is good bet and he is very professional.......he is a 15 min walk from Carvoeiro centre.but he I think delivers the bikes anyway and has all sorts.....nice guy too ..give him a try

I hired a mountain bike from Bob for 2weeks last year, bike was great and he was on call 24/7 should anything happen (flat tyres etc) - you also get lock/helmet/inflator/water bottle - pity he couldnt push me up them bloody hills
