Congrats on seeing a hoopoe! Now that you’ve seen one, you’ll undoubtedly see more.
5 months agoThanks Jacquie - great info!
5 months agoOh yeah—the only really uncomfortable road has been the bit of highway we rode into Girona. It had a very good shoulder so wasn’t unsafe, just unpleasant.
5 months agoHi Carolyn! The Hotelet Sant Joan was fine, friendly proprietor, good bike storage (a bit smelly but bikes don’t mind), excellent location. Our room was very warm; we prefer cooler than 23°C when it’s cool outside. Bed was softer than we like but that seems common in the area as that had been the case in the last several accommodations.
Currently in Girona in an apartment with a firmer mattress!
Hi Jacquie, when planning this route I was wondering if the C-26 was quiet, so good to know it is! It's been very helpful following along with you and double checking all my mapping. It really sounds like you've had some fantastic riding. Very excited. Seems you might also be staying in Hotelet de Sant Joan in Sant Joan de les Abadesses? Are you happy with it?
5 months agoThat’s a bit of what we were thinking. The really nice bit, though, in the narrow gorge, has fresh asphalt…
6 months agoSo great that you got to ride through the canyon. Even with less than stellar weather it looks fabulous. maybe we’ll have to come back someday and do it. With ‘widening and upgrading’ though, it may loose some of the charm (and have more traffic?).
6 months agoWow, that looks amazing!
6 months agoHappy Birthday to Al!!!
6 months agoWay to go on this route!!
6 months agoOf course, my route was based on one from Team Anderson!
6 months agoWhile you are cycling the Pyrenees from West to East, we are cycling your 2016 route, for the most part, from East to West through France, currently in Comprodon. We live in Victoria and are friends of the Classens and Mathers. Reach out to us if you wish at ebikestouring@gmsil.com. Yes, we E-bike tour in Europe. We are not as young and tough as you are.
John and Darlene
I think you and Scott rode through in 2017 and made first
Lyle and Kirsten and now us want to do it. Sadly, it seems it’s usually closed in the spring.
Great photo! I love the clouds in the background.
