I made this trip alone, starting in Pamplona from May 12 to June 5, 2014 on a MTB that I rented from Bikeiberia.
The bike was delivered to my hotel on time as promised. There were small issues with the bike including a non functioning bell, really worn handle grips with the handle bar metal...
Greetings,
Does anyone know a friendly bike shop that I could drop off my rental bike at in Santiago? It will be picked up by the bike rental company before my departure from Santiago. English speaking would be even better.

Any bike friendly places in that city?
Thanks!
Hello,
I'm going to Mountain Bike the camino from Pamplona to Santiago and am curious as to what your experience has been in locking your bike. Do the albergues/hostels/hotels allow you to bring the bike inside, or are you forced to lock them outside?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts...
Hi,
The present plan is to land in Madrid with a bike in a cardboard box, and then recycle the box at the airport. From there I am not clear on the best way to get to Pamplona with a bike. Can I roll the bike onto a train, or a bus, or do they require that it be packed in a box...
