Treskelion reacted to witsendwv's post in the thread E-bike users now excluded from receiving a Compostela with
Like.
True, but the energy expended is by the horse or e-bike primarily. I don't think that taking care of the horse was factored into the distance requirement any more than care of a bicycle for 200km. If a disabled person (or any other) can ride a... -
Treskelion reacted to davebugg's post in the thread E-bike users now excluded from receiving a Compostela with Haha.
My impression reading through this thread is that there is an abundance of overthinking, analyzing, and loophole nitpicking of the text. The bicycle criteria for a Compostela for religious and spiritual reasons has always been 200 km. The...

I don't know how much I care about getting the credentials. However, my humble opinion, as an ebike user who had previously planned to do a camino with an emtb, is as follows: 1) the norm is unclear. Theoretically it could be interpreted as a...

If you are saying that the rider should not, I think you are saying that you don’t ride horses much. It takes a lot of strength and stamina to ride that distance, sometimes up and down steep hills, on a horse.

Treskelion reacted to Kathar1na's post in the thread Compostela: Electric Bikes Excluded? with Like.
I am not sure that this is sufficiently clear: In Spain, these e-bikes that are legally equivalent with traditional bikes cannot go faster than 25 km/h when assisted and the motor is limited to 250 W. And the motor provides assistance only while...

Treskelion replied to the thread Compostela: Electric Bikes Excluded?.Having discussed removing e-bikes from the camino routes, has anybody (apart from Kathar1na) recognised that the EV3 (EuroVelo3) shares much of the camino route to Compostela from Scandinavia. The countries that maintain the EV3 gain support via...

Treskelion reacted to falcon269's post in the thread E-bike users now excluded from receiving a Compostela with Like.
I love heated debates about arbitrary criteria on a completely artificial construct. It all began with a pilgrimage to the alleged tomb of an Apostle. Now you cannot touch the Tree of Jesse after 800 years of fingers and body oil (it won't...
