Blanca Bikes now have a cafe, workshop and rental centre in Parcent. I've been to the cafe a couple of times and the food is excellent as is the coffee. I was there again today and arrived in need of help as I had just crashed off my bike and was bleeding, sore, and with a rather broken bike. The staff were phenomenal, I didn't need to ask for help, they came to the rescue as soon as they saw my state (which wasn't terrible). A first Aid kit was quickly made available as was a comfortable place to recover. Coffee was brought to me, more staff came to offer assistance. The mechanic, who was about to finish for the day came to check over my bike. The rear mech had been pushed into the spokes and neither wheel was spinning properly. He quickly fixed all these issues. I had arranged for my partner to come pick me up and when the mechanic saw us starting to dismantle the bike to get it in the car, he rushed over to help us again, neatly packing it in for us. Sometimes it takes a little crisis to realise and remember there are some wonderful people in this world, today I was reminded of this. A very big thank you to all at Blanca Bikes :-)

Great stay here for 2 weeks. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Blancabikes looked after me and very well and took care of all my needs. This is a brilliant place to come to for training, and only being a 5 minute ride from the coast, you have all the cafes and restaurants you could ask for. I would seriously recommend to anyone looking a cycling getaway.

What a great place to rent a bicycle at Blanca Bikes to explore the area around Xabia (Javéa)! Perfect bikes of very high quality (I rented the Cervélo Solist Rival). And I very much liked the professionalism and kindness of Nigel who helped me getting this unforgettable experience!

We used Bianca bikes for a transfer from Alicante to Calpe, 4 people with 4 bike boxes. Super slick, the driver was waiting for us in arrivals at the airport and we were straight into the private bus parked outside. They even helped us with a mechanical in Parcent on our last day free of charge. Thank you.

This was my first experience on a bike camp and I would recommend Blanca Bikes for anyone interested in a great cycling adventure. The staff was great, breakfast every morning was world class, and the cycling in the Xabia area is world class.

Unreal 3 days riding with Blanca! A very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, something for everyone. We were a group of 4 medium / keen cyclists and couldn’t have been better - some stupidly nice routes around the area, the bikes we were given the best bikes we’ve ever ridden and the breakfast in the morning sorted us right out. Couldn’t recommend this enough! Cheers to Nigel Peter and the rest of the team for sorting us out
