Bicycling the Camino de Santiago in Spain
with Richard Rindone
Saturday July 12th, 2025 5 pm
Thinking of going on the Camino Santiago in Spain? Don’t relish the idea of walking? How about cycling the route. This presentation covers getting started and covers the various challenges and enjoyable stretches as you tour by bicycle through the history and culture of northern Spain on the 500-mile Camino de Santiago route known as the Camino Frances. Walking pilgrims are faced with many difficulties. Bicyclists have their own issues. The focus is on being self-guided, not being part of a tour group.
