The Mayan Palace has about 30 bikes, but they are mostly all the same size and not in very good condition. Bicycle tours are on the activities list twice daily, and you meet at the activities centre near the pool. We were given helmets—one size fits all, whether you like it or not. There are straps you could try to adjust if you like.
Guadeloupe showed us to the bikes. Our group had five people in it, and the other couple around our age quickly grabbed the best bikes. Guadeloupe gave me one whose seat was way too high. When I complained, she gave me another with a seat that was way too low. With a wrench, one could easily have adjusted the height of the seat or the handlebars, but she was not at all interested in pursuing that avenue of thought, so I settled on the bike with the too-high seat. There also did not seem to be very much air in the tire, and the seat was dusty from not having been used. The bikes are all chained up with this one long chain, so in order to get to each bike, all the ones next to it had to be unchained, and again Guadeloupe was not interested in doing anything but getting on her bike as quickly as possible so she could finish the tour and get rid of us.
The tour was underway. We rode single file around the whole of the complex, going along the small roadways that the shuttle traveled along—nothing was pointed out as a site of interest, and there was no information given out about future expansion, although we did pass several areas where there was obviously construction going on.
