  1. Hi...
    I am italian.

    I have a question for english languages...

    How are called, in english language, the peoples that came to Italy from
    England, or from Germany and visit Italy by bike?

    Is there a single word or a single expression for they?

    Is good "cyclotourist"?

    Thanks

  2. Yes "cyclotourist" covers it.

    Google returns three times as many hits for cyclotourist than
    cyclotourists, but cyclotouristes returns fifteen times more hits than
    cyclotourist. If you're aiming at an English speaking audience,
    cyclotourist sig good, but bicycle tourist might be better.

    Post a link to the web site when you're done tweaking it.

    Unless you're shooting for dyslexic cyclotourists, foreign is
    preferred. 😉

    Best would be bicycle-tourists.

    Even English speakers, not familiar with bicycling, would have to
    wonder what "cyclotourist" meant while mere "cycle-tourist" could mean
    a motorcycle-tourist (too).

    In regards to internet searches, in my experience, never use the plural
    that ends with 's'.

    If you search 'bicycle', for example, it will be found as 'bicycle' and
    within 'bicycles'.

    If you search 'bicycles', the search engines will not find just
    'bicycle'.
