I will be bringing my Giant MTB from Denmark to ride the Camino Norte in September. I will start in Irun and follow the Camino route and coastal road to Navia and then head to Santiago.
My question is about bikes on buses along this coastal route. I may skip some sections between Irun and Navia and take the bus. In Bulgaria last year I was told I had to have my bike in a bag to go on the bus. Fortunately I was opposite an IKEA and a supermarket. I nipped into IKEA and bought the cheapest duvet cover I could find and then into the supermarket for 2 rolls of cling film and a roll of gaffa tape. I took the wheels of the bike and put it in the duvet cover and cling filmed and gaffa taped it. It was all done in an hour and caught the next bus. The duvet cover came in handy as an extra sheet in Bulgarian hostels.
This is how I flew my bike back to Denmark. Not unusual as my bike usually travels in a bag made from spinnaker cloth.
Any information about the buses would be welcome.
