The buses are limited to 3 bikes not limit room for them If you have it in a cardboard box or a plastic bag it's enough (but normally they charge for 10€ for the bike).
If not you have the train, it's free for the bike and has cheaper tickets (4€ instead of 10-15€) but takes 2h45min.The buses takes around 1h 1h15min

I booked a cheap(ish) flight from San Seb on Sat morning. It goes via Madrid on http://www.airnostrum.es and then a BA flight from Madrid to London. The only issue I can see is that Air Nostrum will probably want to charge me an extra 45EU for the bike box but I will need to contact Iberia, who seem to own/manage them, to find out.
Oh, I'll need to find a bike box too (or potentially buy one at the airport).
@CarlosBI do you know any bike shops in San Seb that might hang onto some boxes for riders, nearer to the race?

Flying out on the 27th. Was thinking of booking return on the 5th but there's not much from San Seb so was seeing if I could bus to Bilbao with the bike in a box and then fly from there.
There's a size limit on the buses though, 100x60x25 I think, so I'm not sure if they'll take a bike box. Normally my missus would come out with my bikeboxallan but in this case I'll be shipping in cardboard boxes both ways I think.
In the end I gave up and figured I'd book something when I'm there at slightly higher cost but I'm open to smarter suggestions.
