I did originally ask in the touring section about cycle hire near Los Barrios, Cadiz, Spain. I'm going there around 16th may for 6 weeks ish and wanted to cycle over to Gibraltar , up to the national parcs and over to different towns, usual stuff.
1) I cannot take my own bike because I could be sent anywhere straight from this job and taking the bike boxed up is not an option.
2) due to dates moving, scheduled it's not possible to leave early and drive there with bike in back. Also I may be going straight from Greece to Spain
3) I'm looking into the possibility that instead of the usual hire car on site for travel to/from work that I can rent the bike and charge that instead so I don't pay
4) in the touring section someone suggested buying a decathlon road bike then selling when I'm done. Cheaper than renting
So please offer opinions on decathlon road bikes for using or any other clever ideas, hire company recommendations etc that may solve my problem and help me keep cycling whilst in Spain, working, in the heat, ohhhh the agony
Edit: I had thought of just weekend hire as I have Sunday's off but it's then a problem collecting and returning when I'm working 12 hour days Monday to Saturday or worse still nightshift
