The replacement of combustion cars is a trend. The main alternative chosen for this purpose is the bicycle, therefore, the presence of good bike paths infrastructure is extremely important. In this context, this report determines the level of service and the quality of existing cycle paths infrastructure in the city of Sinop, Mato Grosso. Therefore, the methodology used determines indicators and scenarios defined in the cycle planning manuals, obtaining the Cycling Quality Index and the Service Level. The result of this research was a good service level for most bike paths, demonstrating that, although it is still not ideal, the built environment contributes positively to the bike path.
