    Ebike battery charging in albergue

    The rental company will give you the cables to charge the battery. All you need is to plug and charge the battery. Same as a mobile phone.

    Rain Pants?

    We got some from Decatlón. If you bring them it won't rain, if you don't, it will rain buckets. This was our experience.

    Advice on specific Decathlon rain jackets?

    I have the red and blue "Tribord" sailing jacket from Decatlón. Great features, well built, pockets zippers, great hood. Advertised as "breathable". It is not. It's like wearing a shower curtain. Waterproof? YES.

    Re-considering zip-off convertible pants

    I find that items that are designed to do two things, usually do them half as well. Stretch denim (Jeans) pants and a separate stretch denim shorts have served me the best. Lots of pockets. They are available in a variety of colors too.
