Apologies to the Walkers

Leaving on Sunday for the Camino. Was going to walk but have a back injury obtained during training. Dissapointed since my first choice would be to walk it, but rather than not go, I am going to bike it. Plans were for 35 days of walking so now it will be 35 days of biking with a couple of added sections-Bayonne to SJPP and SDC to Finnistere and whatever else comes along.
Thanks for all the info that I have obtained from this site.
I will of course be as polite as I can to all the walkers on the trail and will be yelling "Con Permision" as I approach (assuming I am going down hill, since uphill I will probably not be approaching).
Look forward to chatting with those on the trail at the same time, if you have time for an old biker!
Buen Camino
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

Very good that you go in spite of your back injury. I hope you will be fine riding your bike and you will enjoy the Camino.
Buen Camino to you!
 
Those bikers always seem to be having so much fun!
I'm sure you will too.
And 35 days. Sounds about spot on to me.
Buen Camino

Buen camino!! We arrive SJPP Wednesday so maybe see you along the way - look for a very slow walker, purple rucksack with a forum badge on the back :)
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
The trouble with bicycles is that they are so quiet!
I remember when I was a child (a dim and distant memory!), we would use a clothes-peg to peg a piece of stout cardboard to the bike-frame so that the card played in the rear spokes. It made it sound like we had an engine (you could do two and make it sound like a sports car!). Such simple pleasures.

You could try that. Then we'd hear you coming.
Not sure I could put up with it for 35 days, though.

;)
