Download the KOMOOT app. The free version is more than good enough. You can easily map every stage in a GPX file. Once you have mapped the stage, you can choose between the hiking route, gravel route, touring bike route or even the road bike route. I will be starting in Pamplona on the 28th of...
I feel obliged to say something about E-Bikes. I have walked the frances from StJpdP in 2018. For a different experience, I will be cycling it in July with an E-Bike. I have done a fair bit of training (and still do). Cycling 50-60 km every day at the age of 67 is no joke. In every ride my...
There are about 20 "Emma Louise Smith", but could not see one of them on the camino or with a bicycle. Sorry I think it is going to be a bit difficult to do business this way.

For what it is worth. When I did my first camino from St Jean pied de Porte, I was going to do it by cycling it. I've made an effort to get in contact with people who have both walked and cycled it. All 3 of them advised me to rather first walk it and then cycle it. I am so glad for that advice...
Do you specifically want to do the coastal route? The route I have planned for July is:
Porto
Barcelos
Ponte de Lima
Tui
Pontevedra
Padron (maybe)
I will actually be doing the frances first and then train to Porto for 3 days before I start.
You can built it yourself on the KOMOOT app. Or you can email me with your mobile nr and I can whatsapp you a file.

Thank you for the link. Unfortunately I have no knowledge of the type of train that runs between Santiago and Porto. So I am still a bit unsure and confused.
Has anyone traveled from Santiago de Compostela to Porto by train with an E-Bike? I know it is 2 x trains to take, but want to know if I can take the E-Bike that is not boxed with me even if there is a cost.
Any advice on this topic will be much appreciated.
