For the past few years, the city of Paris has undertaken several projects which to pave the way for bicyclists. Shared bike and bus lanes have sprung up on major thoroughfares and a fair amount of smaller bicycle-only paths now cross the city. Also, the RATP now has bicycles are available for rent at four locations: Châtelet, Canal de l’Ourcq, Bois de Boulogne and Bois de Vincennes. From March to October, you can rent a bicycle for a half-day for 7.60 €. The RATP also offers guided bicycle trips of the city on weekends and public holidays from April to October. Tours last approximately 3 hours.

Discovering Paris on rollerblades is a unique and spectacular way to take in the city sights. A number of groups now organize regular trips through closed-off streets of the capital, generally on weekend evenings (weather permitting). We recommend one in particular: for recreational or less experienced rollerbladers, a group leaves each Friday from the esplanade in front of Montparnasse for a 25 km circuit through the city. Police and first aid professionals escort the group on their journey, which varies each week.

Every neighborhood of Paris is equipped with at least one swimming pool. The largest, most central and gay-friendly pool is the one of the Forum des Halles, “the Centre Sportif Suzanne Berlioux” (10 place de la Rotonde, level -3, 1st arrondissement, 
Les Halles.) From the street level, enter the Forum from the Porte du Jour, the pool is located just beyond the cinemas. The entry fee is 3.80 € for this Olympic size facility.
In addition, you can visit one of the smaller, neighborhood Art Deco pools of Paris which were constructed in the 1930’s. Les Amiraux municipal pool is located behind Montmartre in the 18th arrondissement (6 rue Hermann Lachapelle, Simplon) and the Piscine Pontoise is located in the 5th (19 rue Pontoise, 
Maubert Mutualité). The latter is open every day and also offers complete gym facilities including squash, weight lifting and a sauna.
