Hi,

yes i did but it is not clear, or it is not clear for me. I saw that i can load the bycicle, but i wuold buy the ticket and add the bycicle as well , it is not possible. they say taht the bycicle doesn't have to give problem other passengers and i didn't understood also if I can load the bycicle unpacked or not.

i tried also to use the bus, also using the alse site (bus site). i saw that i can go with bycicle, but they don't sell the ticket in advanced.
do you knwo someone that traveleld with bycicle? i can tr to ask..

many thanks
 
Perfect memento/gift in a presentation box. Engraving available, 25 character max.
Hi Nuniz,
It is possible to book on-line with Alsa.
I have done a trial booking. The itemised invoice lists €10 for services, that's charge for bike.
Perhaps departure date you are seeking is not available.
Also take care to tick "passport" if not using Spanish identity document.

Edit: Perhaps advance booking is not possible from some regions.
 
Hi,

i did the trail me too, the only problem is that i can't buy the ticket right now..but i think i have to wait just that the date will be availabe. do you know if i can load the bycicle unpacked?

many thanks for your help :)
