    Camino del Norte from June 20-July 13

    Hi Thank you for the info! I will be sure to visit those places! How much of your last trip was on roads? And how much was on the actual Camino Path? It seems that only a few bikers ride the actual Camino - is this true? Thanks George

    Camino Frances vs. Camino del Norte

    I have been reading about how busy the Camino Frances has been lately. My bike trip is from June 20 to July 2 and I am wondering if the Camino del Norte would be a good choice. Would someone please compare and contrast the two routes? I am flying into Barcelona. Thanks! George

    From Barcelona to the Camino Frances

    bus times/ energy bars I am surprised that the train to Bayonne takes over 10 hours. Then time spent to St. Jean. Is it true that the trains do not accept bikes? I guess I am being cheap since I get the energy bars and gels free. I also was not sure of there availablility in Spain and did...

    Thank you! It seems that my map does not include many of the towns that either you mentioned or are on the websites you provided links to. Is there a detailed map on the web that I can accsess? Do you know if the Spains trains accept bikes?
