grazzi I watched all your camino del norte videos and prep videos. i will make note of all the parts I need. I have done the Frances twice first on a rented bike-iberia broken old bike (absolutely horrible service). So I altered a used giant for ergonomic (ergo. seat, shock absorbing seat post and ergonomic grips) and gearing improvements 22T/35T crank and 48T max cassette) and it was a little mountain goat. I will take it again but my girlfriend will have an e-bike. some profiles are BRUTAL as you said. Thank you again.

[@damanoos]

Thanks for the feedback. If possible, doing it with your own bike is always preferable: assuming that has a good fit and gearing, it would be just perfect. Gearing particularly is crucial: as you rightly pointed out, there’s 10,000+ meters elevation before reaching Santiago - and I don’t remember any flat part… enjoy your third Camino! 🫶

@@damanoos my final lowest gear ratio is lower than a 3,000 euro orbea! I love it. I had to give up some higher gears but on the downhills I'm moving so fast I don't pedal much looking out on the road for rocks, wildlife, speed bumps and sand on the road. Safety first. If I take a spill at 30 mph my retirement enjoyment is over.

[@damanoos]

Well said. Having easy gears to pedal uphill is crucial... and, not being a race, you don't need to worry about not having enough higher gears: also take advantage of the descents to rest and take in the beautiful landscape!

Well done, do you share the tracking gps file ? How about the slepping nights, where you stay usually ? Thanks - Armando Lopes

[@damanoos]

Hi Armando. I am happy to share the files if you email me (address in the video description): the only thing I ask if you like my videos, is to subscribe to my channel, to help it grow.
Regarding sleeping: we had a combination of some nights already booked (eg. upon departure in Irun, etc.) and the others we booked "on the go", basically the day before or the same day. We never had a problem with availability (did the Camino in June).

[@peternoble4172]

Excellent quality and good advice. Thanks.

[@damanoos]

Thanks Peter, appreciate it!

[@probalghosh2583]

While I shall be walking, I shall keep the route profile in mind and availability of food. pulpos and Idiazabal cheese.

[@damanoos]

Please do! :-)

[@tightatours]

Very Well done 😊👍 helps lots with my planning of my Camino Del Norte (plus on to Porto) May 2024 by cheater e-🚲❣️😁 thank you Legend😊😃👍🌏🇦🇺🦘🐨

[@damanoos]

Glad it was helpful and great idea to keep going until Porto. Galicia really is very much Portuguese already in terms of language and culture!

[@danifernandez2719]
