May 2026. Sidestepping a bit from my usual biketravel modus operandi I join two friends of mine on a 3 week bike trip in Spain. Quite a luxury trip this time cause we’re not only travelling on our bikes but also in a cozy old campervan. The idea is simple: two of us ride their bikes, the third one drives the van, and we change around regularly. The chosen itinerary is the Camino del Cid, 1300km long and running from Vivar del Cid, just north of Burgos, all the way through the rugged Spanish inland to the coastal city of València and on to Orihuela, just north of Murcia.

He's back!
Great video. Thank you. Have a nice day. Greetings from Italy.
Looks a fabulous trip! The camper van is a super way to guarantee a comfortable place to sleep and to avoid having to ride heavily-laden bikes.
Приятная неожиданность! Очень рад новому ролику. Замечательно снято, Эдди, красивая страна, дружная команда.
Ждем нового путешествия!
Pure joy to watch.
It's good to see you again, Eddy! And we don't even have to wait another year for your next adventure? Fantastic! 🚲
Very nice bike story. Good people and bars and delicious food and spanish musics. Perfecto ….
Prachtig mooi
I turned 69 this year also and love riding my bike more than ever.
Fantastic, all the best from Australia
Lovely feel to your video’s
Cycling in the company of two lovely young ladies. You lucky devil Eddy!
Very surprised but glad to see one of your video's up, rather than having to wait a year since your last one. And it looks like it was a really nice journey. Made my day. 👍
Another great video Eddy. Best wishes from Wales.🏴
You have two girlfriends !
Leuk Eddy!
Sinds ik jouw eerste video heb gezien ben ik helemaal fan geworden van jouw kanaal (en het helpt mijzelf om eindelijk eens die droomreis te gaan maken die ik al zo lang vooruitstel).
Maar ergens vind ik jouw vorige video's leuker om, zelfs meerdere keren, terug te kijken. Dat had meer te maken met jouw persoonlijke ervaringen die jij deelde tijdens jouw reizen. Deze persoonlijke ervaringen (en ook tips!) zijn voor mij een belangrijke bron van inspiratie en motivatie! Dus bedankt hiervoor!
Enfin, deze video maakte mij blij door te zien hoe blij jullie waren tijdens jullie reis!
Het ga jullie allen goed!
Groetjes vanuit Nederland, Niek
Looks great eddy well done to ye all👊
Thanks for sharing, and I cannot wait for your next videos 👍
So good to see you again Eddy and with the promise of more to come soon.
As another comment says, your films have a lovely feel to them. A simple life, finding joy in new places and the strangers you meet. Always uplifting.
Thank you and keep safe out there Eddy.
