Before you finalise on May, you might want to bear this little gem in mind:
https://www.euronews.com/travel/2022/11/25/long-queues-and-scams-will-the-new-eu-entry-system-cause-border-chaos

Basically the EU's new Border Control system is due to come into effect then, involving biometric data, paid-for visas etc for non-EU citizens, so I think it's fairly safe bet that border crossings in May will be utter carnage.... Shocked


Seems to have been delayed....indefinitely.

If you’re after a spot by the coast with some sweet mountain roads nearby, Costa Brava is a solid choice. Tossa de Mar, for example, has that perfect mix—chill beach vibes with awesome, twisty roads just a quick ride away. Me and some friends did something like this last year.
One thing, though—definitely book the bikes ahead if you’re going in May. It gets packed, and rentals can run out quick. And if you’re flying over, check out TravelBusinessClass for some good deals on business flights. I managed to save a bit and used it for extra stuff on the trip.


Not for those of us with both British and Irish Passports!

Sounds like an awesome plan! Spain in May is perfect for biking—great weather and plenty of scenic routes. Costa Brava or Andalusia could be ideal since they offer a mix of coastal roads and mountain twisties. I'd recommend booking business class flights and bikes early to get the best deals. Also, staying a bit outside the main tourist areas can make it easier to explore without the crowds. But i prefer Italy Razz

Hi Valery - stick your business air-plane flights up your arse and ride there. Middle Finger
