steve and alinka, cycling the camino in April

[steve]

After several years of wanting to do the whole 800 kilometer camino, we have our plane tickets and will arrive in Spain the end of March. Great photos of the snowfalls in Galicia in the Forum, but we sure hope the snow is gone by then. We plan a modest pace, no hurry to finish, rather enjoy the whole camino.

Good pedalling

My girlfriend and I are cycling the 800km in September this year (for our own pleasure, however also to raise money for the "Make-A-Wish" registered charity) so we would like to wish you a great trip and also would really value feedback upon your return about any specific cycling related aspects to your trip. All the best -- David (DG007)

David, we plan to keep notes of the trip, plus photos and we will be happy to share our experiences with you and your girlfriend. Today we took our last practice bike trip. Tomorrow I disassemble the bikes for the boxes. We are flying KLM to Madrid. The airline is allowing us to check one suitcase and one bike each. Key point, because some airlines want extra to ship the bikes. Steve

Then we wish you both a safe journey and wonderful experience. We are very curious to hear all your news upon your return. David & Sabine

How was it ??

Hope you had a great experience and if you would care to share some of your Camino adventures (plus any special tips for cycling) that would be great.
We are still on target for end of September.
All the best,
David
