Hi Perry, I rode the VDLP in the traditional south to north route less than two years ago (April 2019). Really enjoyed it. Although I primarily rode the Camino paths, I was on stretches of paved road pretty regularily. In most places the road and the path were not far apart. All was good riding, but with some significant hills. If you use an iPhone or an iPad download the “windy maps” app. I found it most helpful because the Caminos are highlighted by a blue line. Even without internet, the maps can be downloaded. Unfortunately, even though I rode in April, I did hit a lot of rain and some snow. Certainly a possibility in November as well. Although I rode the VDLP in 12 days, approximately 3 stages or 50 miles a day, that really pushed my 67 year old body. But, with a lighter rode bike and and staying primarily on pavement, your daily mileage might be better than mine. If I were to do this again, on the trails, I’d keep my distance down to two stages per day. One other experience to share with you is that I rented a bike in Sevilla. Although it was brand new, it was a very heavy bike and not the kind I would choose to ride here at home. So, if you are renting, really do your research on the quality of bikes that are available to you. When in doubt, go with a higher quality of bike. It will really pay off on the hills. Riding a Camino was a great experience that I would do again. A positive about riding the VDLP was that I generally had the road/path all to myself. Then, at the end of the day, it was fun seeing fellow pilgrims at the albergues. Buen Camino!
