Hardly worth starting a new thread as those who are interested are already here!
I am keen to ride in Portugal this coming Spring, probably the early/middle of May. I was hoping to go down with a couple mates, but they have now both decided on alternative entertainments! One trekking in Nepal, one to the Nord Kapp... So, I am now in a bit of a "Billy No Mates" quandary as I still want to do this trip this year, but I will not off road on my own as it is both daft and lonely!! Got one guy interested who is a decent enough bloke, but does need a LOT of nursemaiding
My VERY provisional idea was to ferry to Santander from Pompey, then ride across the Picos by road and establish a base camp for at least part of the trip. I do like camping, but as I hear that as accommodation is pretty modest in price, why rough it...? Nothing set in stone, but I will not trail ride laden with camping gear, come what may! However a camping base camp may well work...
I'd be interested to hear from anyone doing a similar trip, wanting to do a trip, and most important, HAS done such a trip! I have a few routes/tracks from mates and Wikiloc, but it will be a bit of ride into the unknown for me, so any idea would be hugely welcome!!
