- Time of past OR future Camino
- Cycled Caminoin 2014, 2015,2016 with my wife who walked the whole way. I had a problem with my left foot that is still not fixed now so could not walk.
Mike Newton submitted a new resource:
Cycling & Walking the Camino de Santiago Book - now free - My wife Naoko walked and I cycled the Camino over 5 weeks split between 3 periods in 2014-16. I had hoped to walk the Camino but had a bad pain in my left foot just before the start caused by 2 Morton's neuromas, and have spent £1500 trying to fix it but I still have pain now if I walk too far so I cycled all the way in the end. My wife developed plantar fasciitis after about 100km of our 2015 trip but she walked or hobbled on for another 200km. I would have given up.
The third trip in 2016 was after the Brexit vote and I took along a shirt with 'We love the EU' on the front, and 'We hate Boris' on the back. I asked quite a few people that I met along the way if they would wear the shirt. It was certainly a way to get people talking.

I have reduced the price of my book 'Cycling & Walking the Camino de Santiago' to the minimal allowed on Amazon Kindle $2.99. I am only allowed to reduce it to no cost every 90 days for 5 days.. It is on all Amazon sites across the world. I would love a few comments.
