Description:

Route: Mogi das Cruzes > Salesópolis via SP-088
1st day of the cycling trip São Paulo - Rio de Janeiro: São Paulo to Salesópolis
- I started the trip cycling to São Paulo´s Estação da Luz, where the trains depart towards Mogi das Cruzes.  I wanted to catch the express train, which doesn´t make you switch trains in Guaianazes, but I was told that it was faster to take the first available train.
- It was late Saturday afternoon, and the train was pretty full, most people seemed to be going home after spending the day in São Paulo.
- The ticket cost R$3.80, the trip took 1:20h, I had to switch trains at Guianazes Station, and I got off on the last station, Estudantes, in Mogi das Cruzes.
- The first of 5km, of the total 45km I rode, took place in a road without shoulder and with more traffic than the remainder 40km.
- The remaining 40km had shoulder in good condition, however, since there are some dirt roads that connect to the SP-088, the shoulder along these connections was filled with dirt and sand.
- This ride is mostly flat during the first 35km, with the last 10km alternating easy climbs and descents, where the views become to be much more interesting.
- I had about 6kg in the rack and 8kg in my backpack.
- There are few places to stop for drinks and food. The best places are the gas stations just outside of Mogi das Cruzes and then one near Biritiba-Mirim, about 20km before Salesópolis.
