Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Excellent photography, well done. Never considered it could be done by eBike - game changer for many I’m sure. Doing “the Camino” is higher up my bucket list now! You are an inspiration- thanks for sharing this epic journey.

Paul, I loved the video. Unlike many others who were deeply introspecting and philosophical, you were simply having FUN. You should see your face when you were cycling through these surreal sceneries that looked like a damn computer screensaver, you were smiling like a child 😊 You even captivated the nuns in that church! You didn't need the Camino to find anything you lost, you WERE the Camino 😁 Congrats, mate.

Thank you, great video, I've just returned from León to Santiago and did it on bike, not Ebike and I can attest to the fact that the climbs and varying surfaces were in fact brutal. However, I decided to go back in the spring and do another section, Buen Camino. 🙌
@seanclark208511 ай бұрын
Nice video, the E-bike looks like a great option if you want to finish and only have a short time, but personally I'd rather walk a small part for two weeks, you meet so many more people when you're walking, it's the communal part of the Camino that helps make so many new friendships, they just doesn't happen when you're on a bike flying past everyone . . Buen Camino perigrino .

Great video! I'm going back for my second time on a bike. The first time it was not an e-bike, and you know how tough that was. This time, we are on e-bikes, me and some friends. My question was whether your battery was removable because ours isn't. 😅 I'm wondering if it's going to be challenging to charge them.
@paul-akers3 ай бұрын
Yes, the battery pops out and what I did is, I would stop at coffee shops and the restaurants all along the way every 2 to 3 hours sometimes every hour and a half and I would answer emails work on projects with the battery charge for an hour and a half and then continue on it worked out really really well and I love the bikes I’ve been twice and I’m gonna go back a third time but I am selling both bikes for half the price I spent on them if you’re interested in buying them Let me know they’re in perfect condition and they’re the best you can get

I had a lock, but basically every night when you stay in the hotel, you can bring your bike inside the room. It was never a problem. I still have the bikes and I’m willing to sell them for half the price I bought only two grand for both of them I have a 4000 and in perfect condition.

Also, what app did you use for navigation besides Google Maps? Did you like it?? While I tried to do quite a bit on the actual Trail, there were times I took the diversions and got lost a couple of times it was challenging to navigate, many times I felt like I was the only one on the route that I had chosen I didn't see Walker's, and I didn't see cyclists 😂

@paul-akers Жыл бұрын
I charged every night and during the day I would go about 2 to 3 hours, then stop at a coffee shop or restaurant and charge for two hours and then continue on and sometimes I would charge for one more hour depending about how much further I need to go by just stopping at a coffee shop or restaurant and having a salad and working on my computer. It was very convenient and it worked very well.
