    Love Alicante, you chose a great location. Next time you are in Spain ask tour agent about the Sierra Crevillente and Castell Vell and the area around Hondon de las Nieves OR how about the Sierra Espuna near Alhama de Murcia, the ´Thousand Curves´ route (Mil Curvas) might possibly make a great video next time you´re in Spain. Any cafe, any weekend, (not mid summer), in Hondon de las Nieves you can find loads of Spanish MTB and road groups to talk to and they all know some wonderful routes. Great routes, great food, beer and friendly company, AND just the right climate in spring and autumn. Come back soon lads and do some more. Adiós mis amigos.

      +William Keys it's not an ad actually. It's only because some of our sponsors paid for the trip that we have to say it's an Ad on the thumbnail. We made the video we wanted to make, no sponsors have any input or see the film before we put it out. Daft really as it's not an ad 😂 anyway glad you enjoyed it 🤘

      Bike wash?

    • @TimFromWales
      @TimFromWales 7 років тому

      I think a bike wash was mentioned as some of the facilities on hand?
      Washing a bike out there looked like it could mostly be done by giving the bike a quick dust off rather than the hour of "soap" and water its currently taking here in sunny Wiltshire!
