Travelbike has two options, one includes inscription and hotels, carefully chosen by the organization to make sure a good rest after a riding day, and , the another option , which only includes the Rally inscription, and let the competitor choose his own accommodation places to every night.
In the inscription are included all the hotels with accommodation and breakfast, always in TWIN rooms, also could be book, with an additional cost, accommodation in a single room, we recommend book this option with the inscription, if not you can have no place in the hotels.
Accommodation is up to the competitor, we recommend to choose a close place to the cities center, because the closed parks , reserved to the start and finish of every stage would be on these areas.
*Note: The hotels could change for operatives for operational or capacity issues or similar.*
