We had researched a route from Palafrugell to Palamos which followed an old railway line. Routa de tren petit.<\/p>\n

The immediate hills and roads around Begur haven’t got any less mountainous or wider since our arrival so the plan was to drive the bikes to Palafrugell and then cycle from there. For once, we didn’t take a picnic. Moe had thoughts that we would be back for lunch (this was at 10:30 am) but I was rather doubtful we would have even loaded the bikes atop the Sorento by then. Still, there would no doubt be an opportunity for a late lunch in Palamos.<\/p>\n
We parked at the Aldi in Palafrugell and quickly found the cycle trail meandering its way to the coastal town of Palamos which took around an hour, including a few stops to check “mapswithme” to make sure we were headed in the right direction.<\/p>\n
We lunched at a Tapas bar, with the small portions aptly suited to the healthy days cycling although<\/p>\n I think both of us would have liked a nice “menu of the day” somewhere. After lunch we headed from one end of the bay to the other – a full 4km and all on the beach front (“board walk”) so totally traffic free. There was a chill in the air and the sea front was fairly free of people also.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n We have been immensely impressed with the infrastructure in Spain – be it the roads, railways or cycleways.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Dinner was a BBQ with some huge chicken and steak (we think) kebabs. Within 10 minutes of firing up the Weber, the storm clouds gathered and the heavens opened and the skies were filled with thunder and lightening.<\/p>\n Nothing, however was destined to deny the intrepid travellers their well earned meat feast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After a dreadful day of rain yesterday we were both keen to depart the confines of the van and even Moe agreed to another cycle ride so close to the previous one and without full recovery time from a sore ***.
