Hi chaps,
After speaking to Gaz and a couple of you at the weekend I thought you might find a few of these useful for your spain trip. I did a solo trip in August/sept last year and these are the gpx routes I used. They are from various places, some from forums and some from wikiloc.
The main one I based my route on was this:
Spain RB5 west to east.gpx (283.27 KB)
First night off the ferry (2.5 hours from bilbao) I stayed here: Camping Bolaso and booked in for 2 nights. I spent the day riding round the Bardenas area without the gear on and followed a route I made up from various ones off wikiloc:
Day 03 - Bardenas 001.gpx (156.8 KB)
Really good route - mixture of wide gravel tracks, sand and single track rocky climbs. Great views! A few days into the RB5 route I stopped off for a couple of nights at this campsite near Tremp: Camping Collegats . Good base for exploring some local trails. I did a route taking you high up into the mountians - great route, easy but amazing views
Tremp High mountain route.gpx (73.31 KB)
After this I carried on the RB5 route towards the coast then headed back through france. France I did on the road, so no routes for this. Without the extra nights camping and looped routes the RB5 took me roughly 5 days.
Might be useful for you.
