Municipal and some parochial albergues do not admit bicyclists before 6 p.m. They want to provide for walkers as a priority, and work under the dubious assumption that another 5 km for a bicyclist is easy, while it may be difficult for the weary walker.

Similarly, the junta rules say that in the summer, bicyclists accompanied by a chase vehicle are not allowed to use the albergues. Private albergues and hostales have their own, individual rules, but as profit-making entities, usually accept anyone's money.
