Alan and l have just returned from cycling around France for 7 weeks. 1600km on e-bikes carrying just a few essentials in our backpacks.
Starting in Paris we collected our e-bikes from Decathlon and took the train to the Burgundy region where we settled in for the night. Canal riding is easy, flat & picturesque passing thru small villages, collecting our bread, cheese & wine for lunch or evening meal.
Each day was filled with new sites, adventures and sometimes a hill and getting lost. Well, a lot of getting lost in fact. Not speaking French has its advantages and disadvantages, with or without, we managed a fabulous time in a wonderful country with great food, wine & countryside.
We brought the e-bikes back with us, so guests staying a minimum of 2 nights at
17pounds Country Estate can have full use of the bikes included in their stay.
