We do not have a registration quota, from experience we foresee enough bib numbers so no one has to be left without a bib number.

You can only pre-register online (if you still do not have your Registration Number for having participated in any edition since 2013). Definitive registration and payment can only be made at the Zubiarte Shopping Center; Since we don’t have a registration quota, it shouldn’t be a problem.

In this case, you can request an official document signed and sealed from your federation confirming this situation. We accept this document as proof of being federated.

No, just the cycling licences.

No, it can also be displayed on mobile.

You have to wear your number on the handlebars (if it is not technically possible, in a clearly visible place). People who do not carry the number with them do not have the right to refreshments or the trophy.

You can send us an email to bidebike@bilbaobilbao.com and we will change it in our database.

It’s not allowed. Cars cannot stay up all night in the parking lot of the Zubiarte Shopping Center. It is from 6:30 a.m. on Sunday, March 17, 2024, the day of the march, when cars can enter without having to take a ticket (free of charge until 5:00 p.m.!)

In the registration bag there is a paper envelope containing the number etc. The 50% discount voucher is printed on the paper bag itself, which must be shown at the entrance.

The director’s car leaves ahead of the first group at 8:00 a.m. and will take the Classic route at an average speed of 27.5 km/hour and will arrive at the finish line at 12:15 p.m. The broom car will leave behind the last group at 9:00 a.m. and will arrive at the finish line around 2:30 p.m. The participants have to be between these two vehicles, otherwise they will cease to be as indicated in our regulations. As a consequence, from that moment on they would not enjoy insurance (in the case of non-federated members) or medical assistance.

From the organization we try to do everything so that the participants do not suffer stoppages and that there is a situation as safe as possible. This does not mean that with thousands of cyclists and with a departure from and arrival in a city like Bilbao there may be some stoppage caused by the number of cyclists or by traffic devices.

Remember that the Occident Bilbao-Bilbao is a non-competitive cycling race without time registration.
