Wannabe Pilgrim
- Time of past OR future Camino
- 2015 biked CF; 2017 Portuguese by foot, bus, train (injury).
Please don't judge me, but I am just trying to arm myself with plenty of options.
On September 8th, I will leave Pamplona for SdC, on a rented bike; along with my son and his wife, two young, strong cyclists. We are allowing 18 days for the journey, which is a reasonable pace for my fitness level. However, the mountains and plains of Spain may be bigger than me. In my mind, I have been telling myself that I could always catch a bus and meet the young ones in the next town. But is that true?
Are there buses or shuttles that will transport a pilgrim and her bike along the Camino Frances?
I did find an old thread stating that local trains used to accommodate bikes, fully assembled. And buses would take bikes if boxed up. Is that still the case?
Anyone aware of shuttle services that might do this?
