The pilgrim certificate

The church makes the rules are they are different for bicycles.  It is easier to cycle than to walk so they make you travel farther.  It's easy to cycle 100 km in a single day and 100 miles (160 km) is not that hard.   We decided to see most of the museums, churches etc., to stop for morning snacks and afternoon beers and we still averaged about 60 km/day for our 10 week trip and I was pulling a 50 pound trailer.  Our longest day was 115 km, our shortest was still 30km.  I'm surprised that they only require 200 km.

Many of the refugios wouldn't admit cyclists until 7 or 8 pm so that there would be space for walkers.

  How can the distance be different by different modes of travel?
