Riding to Santiago: Camino del Norte, day 1

Starting the trip in La Caridad!

Switched to a light setup: Ortlieb Handlebar-Pack QR, Frame-Pack and Seat-Pack QR!

Bought some cherries for the way!

Following the shell

Little section of singletrack

Steep climb out of Casariego

Taking in the coastal view

Little break in this cute town

Riding through the meadows before Ribadeo

Wooden walkway ride

Seems like a great spot to camp out for the night!

'Today you'll be lucky'

The little booklet in which we collect Santiago stamps!

Found a cafe with a fantastic view

Super narrow bridge crossing, watch your handlebar width

Beautiful flowers at the bridge

Lol

Some construction going on here in May 2022

Climbing out of Ribadeo

Hello there :)

Little staring session at my light setup

Mountains!

Getting tired now

Another nice spot to wild camp

Climbing more...

And even more...
