I not had much time to look anymore into it lately with xmas/work, and sortin out a car ill post back on monday it my day off see if we can pretty much finalise this and maybe even start booking flights. May sound silly question but you dont have to pay to ride there, do you?As for trains i suppose we just turn up at train st and wait for next one to Sabadell or nearest place.

sundance Posted December 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 (edited) Ok i think its time to book now yes?Flights.The cheapest flight i found was with Easyjet from London Gatwick to Barcelona. (LGW/BCN) Luton airport was slightly more expensive and stansted was twice or three times more expensive than Gatwick.So:-Depart Gatwick on Thursday 14th Feb 08 to Barcelona on flight EZY5131 at 07:10AM (arriving there at 10:20AM)Returning from Barcelona Sataurday 17th Feb 08 to Gatwick on flight EZY5140 at 22:15PM (arriving home at 23:30PM)This is including all taxes and fees etc and 1 bike comes to £73.98 return (Not including any checked in bags/suitcases as i dont think we will need them. For those of you that do want to check a bag in its another £7 odd return, however i think you be better off putting any tools in the bike bag and few cloths etc in 1 hand luggage)I chose these timed flights to make the most of our short stay.Does anyone have a problem with these times and dates and choice or airport? Say so now if you do so we can finalise things.From Barcelona Airport to SabadellLooks like train is prob the best way to do it. I have searched and searched to try and find which train(s) to get and how much it will cost but i really cant find anything. All i have come up with is these 2 train maps which show both BCN airport and Sabadell. Anyone that has done this trip before can you please help us out here, what did you do? How much was it roughly? Train map 1AccomodationThere are hundreds and hundreds of hotels apartments coming up when i search for this this is just 1 i found alhough not sure how far it is from trials park. Matt what was the hotel you found, you got a link to it? Do we stay in Sabadell or Barcelona? Anyone up for riding Barcelona by the beach as well as trials park?http://www.all-hotels.com/xbook/servlet/Di..._of_children3=0http://www.drive-alive.co.uk/hotels.asp?Re...OrTown=Sabadellhttp://www.softguide-barcelona.com/accommo..._Barcelona.htmlCome on guys lets finalise this and get it booked. Would help greatly if everyone looked for info on trains and accomodation. I got a bangin headache now so im going have to stop for now but this post should help get 1 step closer to booking a flight at least.
