Personal cycling challenge 2016
Mme poivre replied to Mme poivre's topic in Sport, Leisure and Pastimes
Thanks NormanH I feel very privileged to have been able to do it, not just time and money, but health and fitness too. As a 50 something I am very aware of my mortality and am grateful for every day that I can enjoy. Now Its my chance to have 5 weeks in the lovey Vendee before I have to go back to reality and work. have a wonderful summer everyone :-) -

Well we did it 545 kilometers over 6 days down the Brest nantes canal. It was a really lovely experience and we managed to stay at some really lovely places along the way. From B & B's with swimming pools in the middle of the house to eating evening meals in little rural villages. I can honestly say we are looking forward to next year already . -

Thanks Sue Unfortunately yes Sue we are arriving at 9.30 pm so was hoping to find a B&B as close as we could to the port not knowing the area and not wanting to cycle out at that time of night. Its difficult because of having to take the Ferry on the days we need its was the best option. -
My husband and I enjoyed our first cycle adventure so much that we are going to do it all over again this year. However, this year we are starting from Roscoff and ending in Vendee. What I would like help with please is are there any bed and breakfast or small hotels near to the ferry port that will accommodate our bikes and us. Any recommendations appreciated TYIA
