Last week 9 of us bravely rode across Spain using a fantastic route created by pistonbroke. Big write up to follow but here are my pictures

Apologies for poor quality of those taken whilst riding and also the picture of Andy B in his night time skinsuit.

This looks vaguely exciting. Fair play.

It was vaguely exciting and more. Thanks for posting those Dave.

You had your own feed station - that's brilliant that is

The bloke that brought the beer and food out was a dead-set legend - drove 60 miles to meet us and ply us with chow.

Wow.

That looks most excellent.

I'm just back from Spain and decided I really need to get out there for loooong ride later this year

The thing that I'll remember most is the hospitality of everyone we met en route. From the guy at the Sunday campsite that Scott referred to who fed us to a standstill to the young couple who went shopping to give us pasta for lunch on the longest day and charged us €6 a head for a meal, drinks and coffee. The eccentric bloke at the end of the Camino del Cid who brought out swords for us to take photos and gave us a history lesson at 9 o'clock at night, the little old lady at the cafe outside Burgos who force fed Dave and I Chorizo and bread and made us a much needed coffee, charging us €4 for the 2 of us! She'd run the cafe for 70 years and could barely see over the bar.

Looks like a great trip. Funny how many of the things that stick in your mind after a trip are linked to food. :p
Quick question, what's the tent in this picture: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipP ... N0ZHo1UVl3

Thought I'd shamelessly bump this up to allow those who missed it to see the photos that augment Dave's excellent writeup.
