    Cycling in the Luberon

    Has anyone ridden this route? I've done Cavaillon to Bonnieux but wondering about the rest, particularly the southern portion.

    Thanks!

    Nope, but if you tell me more about it I can try it in June and get back to you by July 1st.

    I think we'll be staying in the area 4-5 days and we're looking for places to ride.

    I've only ridden (slightly) North of there for quite a bit but:

    It will be great.

    You will be in France.

    The food will be amazing.

    The roads are small but lightly traveled.

    You will be in France.

    It will be great.



    Oh - and go HERE: http://www.nougat-silvain-freres.fr/01/nougats.php It's the best nougat and also the most entertaining video ever. We went 2 years in a row.

    We stayed here and it was pretty great: http://www.chateaudemazan.com/

    I don't know if it's closeby, but this is a really great b&b and the service is outstanding.

    I've ordered maps from the following website. Look at the left side of this link and you can choose your region:

    And as maillotpois says, you'll be in France!

    T'es chanseuse, toi!
