My story

El Camino de Santiago de Compostela (or 'The Way of St James' in English)  is an old pilgrimage route. It stretches from France and into Spain, ending at Santiago de Compostela the final resting place of St James. We plan to ride this route (and more) totalling 1020km through the Pyrenees in just 11 days.
Darren has personally chosen to undertake this challenge in aid of MacMillan Cancer Care, in memory of his Grandad Roger Mills, a strong and inspiring man.
