Hello Martysville..... we were in contact last year about riding the V d L Plata and as you know i finally arrived in Santiago in March . I enjoyed this route so much that i am planning my last pilgrimage in March or April this year .
I have already bought a cheap bike so i can just leave it in Santiago ( i think we discussed the bike hire charges in our last communication and indeed they are expensive ....350 euros at least .)
I will be starting on the Mozarabe Camino from Malaga late March or early April and as this route joins the Vd L Plata in Merida maybe we will meet up at last somewhere after Merida .

Regards......John

Hey John...

Long time since heard from you.

Going to give this VDLP another spin. No pun intended.

This time mainly following the N 630 route. Hopping on and off of the camino.

Take a look at the link I posted in OP.

Good luck. Glad to hear from you.

I think I’m on day 12, so not quite two weeks in. Thus far the VDLP is definitely a different animal than the CF. And I have to say, I’m struggling to enjoy it as much as the CF last year. I...

I left them on the trail about 4-5 k before Cea I expect to be in Santiago on April 27-28. Mu email is written on the sides of the poles (for just this eventuality). If you find them and we can...

Gronze has a note for the albergue in Valdesalor saying the key needs to be picked up from the town hall or the bar. Am I correct in assuming that this only applies if you are the first to arrive...
