The Ride Lake Como is the go-to place for those who want to explore Lake Como by bike or on foot, based in Oliveto Lario, on the eastern shore of the lake.
We offer rentals of electric MTB and gravel bikes, kids’ bikes, and Colnago V3 road bikes, ideal for climbing the legendary Ghisallo and Muro di Sormano, or discovering the panoramic trails between lake and mountains.
Every bike comes with a helmet, lights, lock, repair kit, and specific pedals. On request: Garmin GPS, phone mount, cycling shoes, and child seats.
Our service is designed for all levels: beginners, families, or expert cyclists seeking top performance and high-end gear.
We are an official Enervit and Julbo dealer, offering energy products, technical sunglasses, and cycling accessories.
Our fully equipped workshop provides expert repairs and maintenance.
We also offer guided bike tours, daily excursions, and unique experiences like Stellar Nights – evenings combining nature, local food, and stargazing.
With passion, quality, and expertise, The Ride helps you discover the most authentic soul of Lake Como – on two wheels or on foot.
We visited on August 31, 2025. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the gentleman who helped us, but I haven’t seen someone so passionate about their work in a long time. Absolutely brilliant!
Everything was perfectly arranged. The bikes were ready with our names on them, the correct pedals had already been mounted so we could use our own shoes, and the bikes were adjusted to the right height on the spot.
We were also provided with bottles, gels, and electrolytes. On top of that, the helpful staff member gave us great advice for planning our route.
All in all, a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend to anyone!

Amazing experience with great value for money! Everything was super flexible and smooth. We rented two beautiful Colnagos, and they delivered and picked up the bikes directly from our place in Como. The staff was very friendly – we had a lot of fun with Luca 👌🏼 A huge recommendation, and best of luck for the future 💪🏻.

I had a fantastic experience renting a bike from The Ride Bike Rental for two days. The whole process was incredibly smooth. I handled everything through WhatsApp, and within just half an hour, they had the perfect bike ready for me. The communication was excellent from start to finish.
I rented a beautiful Colnago V3 for a very reasonable price. The bike was in great condition and clearly well-maintained. Picking up and returning the bike was also quick and hassle-free. The staff are friendly and true professionals. I highly recommend this business!

We would definitely recommend hiring bikes from here. We rented a colnago road bike and a cube e-mtb. The bikes were great value and worked perfectly. The staff was very helpful, advising us on getting the bus from Lecco and what stop to get off at. On arrival Luca was very friendly and recommended some routes we could take. He told us about the cycling museum and church in Magreglio which we were delighted to find out about! We would definitely come again. The friendliness and hospitality of the staff made the day out 10x better. Thank you for the amazing experience Luca and the team!

We had a fantastic experience – everything was well-organized and perfectly tailored. The San Primo Ring Tour, with our guide Paolo leading us along a beautiful and well-chosen route. He was knowledgeable, informative, and made the hike even more enjoyable.
We also did a bike tour with Luca, which was an amazing way to experience the lake from a fresh perspective. He took us through beautiful little towns, captured great photos and videos for us, and planned a perfect route that went above and beyond our expectations.
The bikes were new, well-maintained, and very comfortable to ride. The shop was clean and professional, and organizing the tours was super easy – the staff responded quickly and were very helpful.
Highly recommend both tours for anyone looking to explore the area actively and with great local guides!
