Travel Arrangements


You are responsible for organizing your own flights and transfer from and to Puerto Rico. This allows you the flexibility to book flights that are best for you. You may want to extend your trip and have a couple of nights in Puerto Rico (recommended) to prepare before you begin the race, or maybe you may want to add on a few days at the end of the tour for some rest and recovery with your friends or family.

Pre Race Hotel Accommodation - Once you have signed up for the race, we provide you a list of recommended hotels for the days previous the race starts. IMPORTANT: The days of the PUR MTB CUP are high season in Puerto Rico, so it is very important that you book the stay in advance. Then will be an opportunity to meet Axel and the tour staff on the evening before the race starts, which will also give you a chance to get to know some of the people with whom you will be sharing in the race.

Bike Transportation/Bike Boxes - Taking a flight with a bike for the first time can be a bit daunting, however, it’s no more complicated than traveling with a pair of skis or golf clubs. These helpful videos, courtesy of our friends of Global Cycling Network, show you how to put your bike in a bike box.
