Our Final Destantion

We have arrived at our vacarions final destanation! Santiago de Compostela.

With only 40 miles to go with a battery good for 39 , we headed out at the moment there was enough light to be safe. The roads we were travelling on are truck routes so we wanted to be seen. So 8:30 would be enough time to make it by at least 1:00 riding in low power and for a good part, no power. The end of any of the Camino routes are always filled with Pilgrims with their huge packs. After a long hard walk, I'm sure tha last thing they want to see is an ebike, so staying off the trail was best. Most of the last 20 miles was down hill with a short climb every 3 miles or so. We had more than enough power to make the stage. With 10 miles to go, we just both went to full Turbo mode and zoomed into town. We had never come into Santaigo on this route so getting a little lost was to be expected. Following our instincts, we did well. Only a few one way streets the wrong way, walking at times. We made it to a bike shop and asked if they knew of the ebike rental and as it turned out, it was only a few blocks away, around the corner. Dropping the bikes off went smoothly. Having to explain the crank falling off and the loss of power on the second day went well. We were out of there in no time. Our hotel was only about a mile walk away. Santiago was packed with people. Slow walkers,(slower than me) were taking their time to enjoy the day. We made it to the Hotel with time to spare for our renovations at 2:00 at out favorite restraunt"Casa Marcello" Our bags had not arrived so we went dressed in out bike clothing, that are more comfortable street clothes and not multi colored licra. All Good!
