    Muxia to Lires-29km The seventh stage officially ends at Nemiña, a tiny settlement around a beach. There is only one place to stay that costs 75 euros a night so we went on the extra 4.5km to Lires. The guide says this is the hardest stage. It...

    Thu 4 July Lires to Finisterre-21km The route certainly goes out with a bang with a magnificent trail over cliffs, through woods and along beaches. Again a lot of ascending and descending. Isolated Praia de Rostro beach is just wonderful, over...

    Perhaps this is the thread you remember. Welcome to the forum! I found that thread by entering "recumbent" in the Search box. I have also tagged this thread and the other with "bicycling". There is also a forum section on Bicycling on the Camino.

    My father-in-law rides a recumbent trike (a Greenspeed) and reckons he wouldn't do a camino on it BUT he's now 93 years old. Maybe he would have considered it a few years ago! I've walked that route and was not consciously thinking about bikes...
