I am currently in the process of moving to Spain to work for a year. I am trying to find out information regarding cycling clubs in the Alicante area. If anybody could give me a website/email address or a breakdown of the local racing I would be most appreciative..

There are a few. Kelme is from that area.
I myself raced all over Spain for 7 years and well I know. You will need to belong to a team to race many events. Paperwork will be your nightmare there. Basicly you need to have a spanish racing liscence. Since you say you are going to work then you need to have those papers and go to Valencia to see of you can get a liscence. Valencia is where the closest office is that I know of. Either way try to find a team and ask them for their help. Smaller teams may not help you as they never employ foreigners. Bigger teams do but you have to be REALLY good. I mean really good. You will find out as soon as you hit your first race. Also racing in Alicante/Valencia is really good. Next good spot is Euskadi. I spend 4 years in Euskadi and 3 in Valencia (Alginet). Best of luck and feel free to contact me direct with any more pointers and information.
