I am looking to organise a club trip to mainland Spain next year at a date that is suitable to the majority that are interested. This could be from late Jan through to late Feb. To express interest please complete this form
We will be based at Albir, just north of Alicante which is an ideal location on the Costa Blanca. There are coastal mountains with jaw-dropping views, quiet roads in excellent condition. The Costa Blanca basks in mild, steady weather and plenty of sunshine during the winter months. Temperatures hover around 16°C most days, dipping to around 12°C on those rare cold, cloudy days. On the flip side, sunny days can climb to a balmy 25°C.
This is a list of some of the climbs that can be ridden – https://www.cyclefiesta.com/multimedia/climbs/costa-blanca.htm, here is a description of some of them
Accommodation
I propose that we stay at the Albir Playa Hotel, and for half board will cost €52 based on 2 sharing (supplement of €28 for single occupancy). These prices are for a group of 20 people. See prices here
Bike hire
You can take your own bike or hire from a number of local Bike Hire shops, across the road from the Hotel is Albir Cycling
Flights
The budget airlines have flights to Alicante, RyanAir has flights from both Bournemouth and Bristol, and EasyJet from Bristol. The prices are very reasonable at the moment
This trip is open to all standards of club rider, so don’t delay get your name down today on this form. As soon as we get 20 people confirmed then we can get accommodation, flights and bike hire (if required) booked up.
Thanks
