Anyone done this? anyone want to do it? Any one know anything about it? Have been googling it for a bit now, very much want to give it a go this summer.

For those that don’t know it is an off road trail that goes up the back of Spain between Sevilla and Santiago de Compostella

I would say that it will be very hot in August from expereince and wouldnt be the ideal time.

been planning to do this for a while, have a route around on the internet, plenty of really good info, i’ll see if i can dig out some links

Thanks guys.

I am scared about the heat. My plan so far is to ride from 5.30-6ish to midday and then siesta/look around for the rest of the day
