Can cycling reverse rural depopulation without turning villages into tourist traps?

In this episode, host Tom Lovett travels to Spain's "Empty Mountains" to meet Ernesto Pastor, a cyclist who built a 700km bikepacking route to spotlight a demographic crisis.



We dig into the rise of cycle tourism, and what is can offer rural areas. Ernesto explains why all successful routes need are simple road maintenance, how a bar in a village of 50 people found new life through the route, and why the goal isn't to make villages adapt to visitors, but for visitors to adapt to the silence.
