If it is, my last 100km suggestion is always the Portuguese + Variante Espiritual.

1. Tui-Mos 23km

Normally I would think if you are having to budget that tightly your experience of a Camino will be somewhat too stressful.

Hello, I hope to cycle the VDLP (Seville to Salamanca) in October 2024.
I am an experienced cyclist but a newbie to the camino. Are cycle-friendly albergues common? Or will I need to book cycle-friendly accommodation in advance?
Also, is the...
And older people don't count?🙃
(That's not entirely serious, but some. You might be surprised that people the age of your parents or grandparents can actually be very good company - and they may even be as fit as you are, too...)
And the short...
If I were to identify one regret, it’s that I didn’t take my Camino a bit slower. I walked the CF in 31 days (pretty much the traditional stages). Since then, I now schedule in rest days and shorter stages. Slowing down would have allowed me to...
