Australian Article on cycling part of the Camino

[Deleted member 3000]

I love the description of Alto do Poio; the last few meters nearly killed me on foot, but I took delight in watching those on bicycles finally brought to their knees! My revenge was short as the bicyclists then coasted into Triacastela...

Interesting article! Inspiring for me, going in just 3,5 months from now!

"On the descent into Galicia we fall in for a while with a group of Spanish cyclists who've ridden for a week from Roncesvalles. In the dry conditions, we hurtle down the range at unholy speeds, churning up a storm of dust, arriving brown and gritty into Galicia."

Just the type of idiot who gives cyclists a bad name. We all all know they are out there, and that they are an unfortunate minority. A shame he feels compelled to write and brag about it.
