Hi All
I'm planning to cycle del Norte from Irun to Santiago in May/June 2022 and have planned to do it in the following 15 stages. Could someone who has done it already give me some comments about my plan? Whether some stages are too long or too short? Or whether I should stop elsewhere? I've cycled the CF and Portuguese before and loved both. I try to stick to the walkers route as much as possible. The Buen Camino app seems perfect for highlighting non-cyclable parts. This time I will be opting for an Emountain Bike. Any recommendations are welcome. Thank you:
