Since the lockdown because of the COVID-19 on March 14th 2020 all shops, both fysical and online, were closed in Spain. Which meant that we were not able to rent our bikes to you, our dear cycling lovers. As from today Monday May 4th 2020 the government announced that all shops for roadbike hire Spain can open again. Although you might think this is great, nothing is less true.
February is a period for many people from the North of Europe to go out for a while. A short holiday, where both a winter sport and a sunny holiday are often booked. For the avid cycling enthusiast, a sunny holiday in February is of course a dream come true. For the real ski fanatic, winter sports is the ultimate way to refuel. In the Spanish mountains, both the winter sports and the cycling enthusiast can go well. It´s all about making choices.
A good bike during the holidays, which is properly adjusted and is comfortable is important. The same applies to a hotel; good service, a comfortable bed, good food and sufficient facilities for the cyclists. If you rent a racing bike, it is extremely important that it can be placed in a properly lockable room. This could be your own hotel room or a special storage space for bicycles. This separate room, where the bike can stand dry and safely, sometimes has several other facilities. For example a bicycle washroom or a washing machine for sportswear. In the North of the Costa Blanca you have a wide choice of attractive hotels or apartments that are suitable for a cycling holiday.
Also for the year 2019 we have ordered new bikes at Allure Bike Rental. This way you are assured of excellent quality every year. The racing bikes for your holiday in and around Altea on the Costa Blanca are from the brand Stevens. This time we have chosen the top quality of the Stevens Ventoux Disc Ultegra. That means top quality for an affordable price.
This first real blog starts. TENSING with capital letters as they say so nicely. For us but also
for you! For us it is especially exciting because of course we get from almost everyone who is
a little bit “modern” and wants to participate in all Social Media, well-intentioned advice,
how we do and how we should NOT blog.
