About
We try to make the tour as inclusive as possible for any level of fitness or experience with bike touring. We cycle a maximum of 30–70 km per day (depending on the hills), and on average half of the days we stay in a place without cycling. Our experience is that almost everyone can manage this, but there is the possibility to shorten the distances if we discover that it is too much. People cycle in small groups or alone, at whatever speed suits them, and many people like to take it slow and take lots of breaks. A detailed route plan for the day is shared in the morning, arrows are drawn with chalk on the road at every turn, and if you get lost you can always call the Biketour phone. If you have a shitty bike, you will not be the only one, and we enjoy supporting each other if something breaks. We make sure that the last people to leave carry a toolbox, a phone and a first-aid kit in order to assist if anything goes wrong on the road.

In the loneliness of the afternoon in Can Decreix I wrote a song, inspired by the feelings while greeting and hugging friends with whom we have been sharing a good piece of road… here it is: People go and people come on the way to Perpignan people come and people go Can Masdeu seems months…

Over night some of our communal items (and some personal shoes) had been attacked and partly eaten by animals – a learning experience… After a breakfast with lots of warm leftover food from the night before, we had a short ride on a flat road leading us to Figueres. Our group…
