    Compostela: Electric Bikes Excluded?

    I feel obliged to say something about E-Bikes. I have walked the frances from StJpdP in 2018. For a different experience, I will be cycling it in July with an E-Bike. I have done a fair bit of training (and still do). Cycling 50-60 km every day at the age of 67 is no joke. In every ride my...

    Cycling routes from Porto to Santiago

    For what it is worth. When I did my first camino from St Jean pied de Porte, I was going to do it by cycling it. I've made an effort to get in contact with people who have both walked and cycled it. All 3 of them advised me to rather first walk it and then cycle it. I am so glad for that advice...

    Do you specifically want to do the coastal route? The route I have planned for July is: Porto Barcelos Ponte de Lima Tui Pontevedra Padron (maybe) I will actually be doing the frances first and then train to Porto for 3 days before I start.

    E-Bike on a train from Santiago de Compostela to Porto

    Has anyone traveled from Santiago de Compostela to Porto by train with an E-Bike? I know it is 2 x trains to take, but want to know if I can take the E-Bike that is not boxed with me even if there is a cost. Any advice on this topic will be much appreciated.

    Bicycling the Camino Sureste 1100 kms in the Spring

    WOW Well done and good luck "RESPECT". I am 67 and will do my first cycle camino in July. Although I use to be a regular cyclist in my younger days, I also opted for an E-Bike from Bicigrino. If I can get enough training miles in the legs and bum, I might still change it to a regular MTB.

    Transporting my bicycle from Pamplona to St Jean Pied de Port

    I plan and hope to cycle the camino Frances in August 2022. I will be unpacking and setting up my bike in Pamplona and send my bike case with extra luggage with CORREOS to Santiago. However, I would like to start in St JPdP. How do I manage to get there without cycling it? ALSA will obviously...

    Your advice - Cycling the actual Camino Frances ????

    Thanks for a very informative thread. Which guidebooks are you referring to. We would also like to do the walkers path at a very slow pace. However my wife is new to cycling and therefore would like to use alternatives in the difficult or "problem" sections. I thank you.
