Cycling 2025 Alicante 20 February - 11March 2025

Since some issues with arthritis decided to cycle in Alicante area of Spain this year. Instead of camping resided in the Ibis Budget Hotel in Alicante. And what a lovely experience. Initially booked 3 nights with intention of camping at Santa Pola for the remaining 17days. Enjoyed the comfort of Hotel and friendly staff booked in for the remaining 17days. The weather this year was on the cool side with a mixture of sunny days, windy days and some showers. Also did a modest 415km with 30 km average days cycling mixed with rest days and visits to Santa Barbara castle in Alicante.
