    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    Below is a table showing the average cost to change an electric bike in 24 countries. This information was correct as of January 2023. As you can see it costs approximately €0.09 in Spain to charge an electric bike. Let’s say this information is incorrect and it costs 3 x as much (an...

    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    I think most pilgrims are generous if they can be. And most cafe owners appreciate the extra business. But at the end of the day people will be who they will be and no amount of debate here will change that. We are each on our own Camino and we will, rightly so, make our own choices 🙏

    How about we haggle? Would you accept €6.50?

    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    Of course e-bike charging will be appreciated when it’s needed. Just as a coffee is appreciated and a hearty meal when we need it. Does that mean we should pay an amount based on how much we need something? So if I was just a little bit hungry and not really that much in need of my burger I’d...

    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    Both the hire company and the manufacturer state that 80% can be reached in 2 hours. We’ll probably only need a top up so I’m thinking 60-90 minutes tops. Will be hot at that time of day anyway so good opportunity to get some shade for a while 😎

    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    Have you ever ridden an e-bike? I definitely wouldn’t say it’s the same as being ‘transferred’ lol. I was thinking €5 would be a good offer when we charge our 2 batteries at a cafe / restaurant. We won’t be charging them to full capacity as it’d take too long probably just an hour or so. I used...

    E-bike charging on the camino - Contributing to cost

    My friend and I are e-biking the plata this September. The use of e-bikes makes the journey possible due to time and health restrictions. I’m not going for the compostella and getting them has never been my motivation (I’ve walked 5 Caminos since 2003). Perhaps the desire to get the certificate...

    Best app(s) for biking Via de la Plata

    Thank you again. Exploring for me is cycling across a country! While at the same time staying relatively on course to make my booked accommodation for the evening 🙂 I’m biking the plata because I’m not able to take the time off to walk it, and it’s the only one I’ve not completed. Really...

    Best app(s) for biking Via de la Plata

    Thank you for your detailed response 🙂. I now have plenty of helpful options! Mainly I’m just looking for something to help me stay on the VDLP and not miss the scenic sections and end up on too many roads… I’ve walked several caminos but first time for me on a bike - also there are less...
