Hi. Biked large parts of Cuba in 2019 with a small group. The roads are generally bad, and spare parts/repairs are very hard to get, so you have to carry the necessities. The good thing is traffic is pretty sparse, lots of tractors and horse/carts, which is pretty weird. I'm an Aussie citizen, so no probs with a visa. We flew in from Houston, and got our visas at the airport there. I don't know how difficult it is to go there fully independantly. I had a good look at it but from here seemed very hard to put together, so we joined a small group out of the UK. It's a fabulous country and well worth visiting. Oh, and yes, google maps OK but inaccurate, and getting food very tough. This is where a small group works. We spent quite a bit of time at the end staying in Cohimar, and sometimes getting dinner was "this is what we have, do you want it?" They do it very tough in Cuba, no doubt about it.
