Did you decide to camp in the end? Bet it seems silly in hindsight to have been worrying about it eh?!
Glad you're enjoying yourself.
frankenbike-
Very silly yeah, in fact it feels a bit weird being in a house again. I really enjoyed it. Used sites most of the time but did wild camp once in france (out of necessity mainly, i did way too many km and was utterly dead and got to a site that wasn't open yet).
I've had the time of my life it's been great. Now looking at other places I want to ride my bike. Now I have the kit I doubt I'll be going on many 'regular' vacations with gf :/ hahah

Also another top tip for making garmin gpx on the go with only a phone.

This app called EasyRoute is pretty kickass to use. Just tap along and make your route. Really like the streetview feature for checking terrain. It exports a .gpx which your iPhone will ask if you want to open in the Garmin Connect app from there you can bluetooth it to your device.
Its been a lifesaver. Well... battery saver :D
Extending my trip was a great call. Bit worried i wont make the ferry before my new job but having a great time in Spain. The Velodyssey is great but realt lacks climbs later on, and if you enjoy climbing it can get pretty dull.
