finding my ride in France?

(stifling my jealousy...)

I would definitely bring my bike if I were going to be there that long. Should be amazing!

Remember you will have to wear a hi viz vest/gilet with retro-reflective stripes outside of towns at night and in poor visibility!!!

And not just any - it needs to meet EU standards...apparently they are quite easy to come by tho!

We visited Brittany and its absolutely beautiful and perfect for cycling. Its one of France's best kept secrets. The seafood is so amazing. If I were you I would bring my own bike. Different airlines charge different amounts, so consider this when purchasing tickets (european carriers tend to have more liberal policies regarding bicycle transportation).

Wonder if there were alot of cycling accidents at night that is causing them to have this new law. Am intrigued, if helmets are not yet mandatory for everyone in France/other EU countries.

We rented from http://www.bikerentalsplus.com/ and had great service. You can rent cheaper locally in many cases but if you want to be sure to have a good reliable bike you may want to check them out. They have Cannondale Hybrids and road bikes and they deliver and set you up.
