It took me 4-6 months to prepare, basically I tried to read everything I could about biking the camino. Also, trained a little. You will have a great time for whatever reason you choose to go. <BR>

If you haven't cycled for more than one day, then I would advise you put in a litte practice.<BR>
<BR>
Good luck to you <BR>
