    Train from SDC to Bayonne with a tandem bicycle

    Jim, in the end we booked our bus tickets along with the tandem - we paid for two bikes but it didn't matter. We did this at the bus office near the pilgrims office. It was easy enough but be prepared to have to change the day you travel out if there isn't room for the tandem on the bus. You...

    Train from SDC to Bayonne with a tandem bicycle

    We ride because I can't walk long distances due to issues with my feet. We've already done the Loire and the Rhine and the midi-Pyrenees and many other rides - about 20,000 kms in Europe.

    Cycling bells a must!

    Davroos - yes we are cyclists, road, MTB and touring. In Australia it is law that you must have a bell on your bike. On the Camino, most cyclists didn't. We rode on the road. We are simply trying to draw awareness to other cyclists that the walkers are often startled by bikes. Everyone just...

    It looks like Media Distancia is an option but we don't think we can go direct from Santiago to Irun. It looks like several train changes. Still looking. :D

    Train from SDC to Bayonne with a tandem bicycle

    Thanks for the replies. The TGV will not take the tandem. It is over their size limit. Regarding the other train, we have read somewhere that you need to book an overnight train as Mike has suggested and that your bike goes in the sleeper compartment with you. This won't work because the...

    Train from SDC to Bayonne with a tandem bicycle

    We are new to this forum so apologies if this question has been asked before. We have checked and couldn't find an answer. We are planning to cycle the Camino in 2013 from Monflanquin, France to SJPP to SDC. Our question is how do we get back. We don't have time to cycle back and were hoping...
