Trans Pyrenees Route - June 2019
Posted: Fri Jan 11, 2019 10:19 pm
Hi,
Anyone up for bike packing across the Pyrenees in mid June (Monday 3rd to about 14-16th). Details of the (most popular?) route are here http://bikepacker.com/pyrenees-mountain-trail though happy to consider variants.
I did a 4 day stretch in Sept last year and loved it, generally I love cycling in the pyrenees for a number of reasons (climate/ people/ food/ cost etc.). The four days I did consisted of about 8 hours biking, 8 hours sleeping and 8 hours chilling & eating and drinking and this seems to be a good mix to me.
The riding was a mix of roads and tracks, all pretty doable though I'm guessing there are more technical/ single track/ hike-a-bike sections further west (I did an eastern stretch, Molina to Figueres).
Anyway, would be good to get a small group together for this...
