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

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
