Hi all -- planning on biking the Camino Portuguese in early October. I'm looking for transit options back to Porto (with bikes) from Santiago de Compostela and my searches aren't returning any options for buses or trains on Alsa/Trainline etc. It looks like there are several buses a day through September, and then none in October.

Is it just that schedule for October hasn't been released yet? Anyone have any ideas when they do get released?

Any other tips on travelling back to Porto with bikes appreciated!
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Rome2Rio indicates that Rede Expressos travel this route.

It's easy. Take it with you on the train from Santiago. You will need to change trains at Vigo, where you should have enough time for breakfast at the station Cafe. From memory, I think you can buy both tickets at Santiago train station. Buy your ticket the day before you travel to make it easier on the day. RENFE is the rail company for Spain.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
