## Questions
### Where is Lavelo?
Lavelo Cycling Apartments is inside the Costa Blanca mountains, in Fageca (Alicante, Spain), at 750 m. Alicante airport (ALC) is about 95 km away and Valencia (VLC) about 125 km: around 1 h 30 by car from either.

### Why stay in the mountains rather than on the coast?
Every route starts at the door, without the 20–40 km of flat road from the coast to reach the climbs. Every route finishes uphill, climbing back to the apartments. And you ride the climbs against the flow of the coastal groups, with the road to yourselves.

### When is the best time to come?
Winters in the Costa Blanca mountains are mild and dry, which is why nearly every UCI team trains here in winter. On the coast, December to February average a maximum of 17 °C with 3–4 days of rain a month; in the mountains it is a few degrees cooler.

### What are the apartments like?
Four private apartments in the same building, each for two riders: memory foam mattresses, a full kitchen, climate control, high-speed fibre and a private bathroom with a hot shower.

### Where do the bikes go?
In the secure bike storage in the building, with an area to assemble them.

### Can I rent a road bike?
Yes, on request: tell us on WhatsApp (+34 623 997 204) and we arrange it with a local partner.

### Is there a physio or massage?
On request, with a local partner. Ask on WhatsApp.

### What does the team car carry?
It follows the group on the agreed route with water, nutrition, basic tools, spare tubes and a first-aid kit.

### Do you give us the routes as GPX?
Route GPX files are given to guests during their stay.

### Can non-riding partners or family come?
Stay: yes, non‑riding partners or family are welcome. LaVolta LaVelo and Training camp: places are priced the same whether you ride or not; these weeks are designed for riders. Custom: tell us and we’ll see if it fits your plan.

### Can I come on my own or as a couple?
Lavelo takes groups of 6 to 15 riders.

### How do we pay?
A 200 € deposit for the whole group when booking: it holds the dates. The balance is due 20 days before the start.

### What is the cancellation policy?
The deposit is refundable up to 30 days before the start; after that, it is not refundable. The balance is 50% refundable until 10 days before the start; after that, no refund.

### What if it rains?
The daily briefing picks the route for the day's weather: which loop stays dry and what time to start.

### Who cooks?
You do. The kitchen is stocked on arrival with the groceries for breakfast, lunch and dinner; there is no cook and no restaurant.

### Can we choose our apartment?
No. Camps are booked by places and we assign the accommodation: two riders per apartment and, from the ninth rider, villas next to the apartments.

### Will there be another group at the same time?
No. Only one group at a time.

## Other ways to come
- [Stay: apartments by dates](https://lavelo.es/offers/stay.md): Choose this if your group organises its own riding and meals and needs the base, or wants to add single services rather than a full programme.
- [LaVolta LaVelo](https://lavelo.es/offers/lavolta-lavelo.md): Choose this if you want a full week with everything organised: the stages, the team car, the feed stops and the transport.
- [Personalised package](https://lavelo.es/offers/custom.md): Choose this if neither the plain stay nor a closed package fits: other dates or length, a different group size, specific routes or a particular mix of services.
