Frequently Asked Questions
¿Can someone else come by the Zubiarte Shopping Center to collect your goodie bag?
Yes, someone else can pick up your Goodie Bag; That person just has to show your QR Code received by email, and if you are a member of the Federation bring at least a copy of your license. Your ID is not necessary.
¿Where can I pick up my Goodie Bag exactly?
You can pick up your Goodie Bag at the central part of the “Puente floor” of the Zubiarte Shopping Center, Lehendakari Leizaola, nº 2. 48001 Bilbao.

I have paid for my license, but the card has not yet arrived.
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.
Are triathlon and mountain licenses valid...?
No, just the cycling licences.
How can I show that I am registered and that I am entitled to the refreshment and trophy?
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.
I have changed my email address and/or I want to change personal information relating my inscription.
You can enter your private zone “My inscription” on the platform of Rock The Sport introducing your emailing and Localization number received by email. Here you can download the confirmation of your inscription with your QR code and or change your personal data as for example your e-mail address.
Where can I park my caravan/van?
At https://bilbaohostel.net/area-autocaravanas-bilbao/ hey have postponements for caravans/vans.
Can I park my car already on Saturday at the Zubiarte Shopping Center and leave it there overnight until Sunday, the day of the march?
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 23, 2025, the day of the event, when cars can enter without having to take a ticket (free of charge until 5:00 p.m.!)
How do I enjoy the 50% discount on admission to the Guggenheim?
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.
What happens if I am outside the hours indicated by the organization on the day of the march?
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.
Is the tour closed to traffic? Can there be stops?
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.
