Last summer I tried to cycle the length of the Portuguese coast, from Lagos to Foz do Minho, but an unfortunate accident forced me to abandon the tour in the city of Caldas da Reinha. I'm thinking of taking the train up to Caldas and cycling the northern part of the coast. After that, I'll either continue north into Galicia (Galiza), Spain, or turn east and ride through the always interesting Trás-os-montes region.
