Friends of mine from the Vancouver area are planning to live and travel in France for several months this Fall.
They want to do some bike touring both from the villa in the South they will be renting for two months and from the canal boat in the Loire region they will have for two weeks. (Is that the sound of sympathy I hear coming back through cyberspace?)
They are wondering about the possibilities and practicalities of renting touring bikes in France or buying reasonably priced second hand bikes there- that perhaps they could resell at the end of their visit. They do not want or need top of the line equipment.
Of course they could take their own bikes but that means a lot of extra luggage to transport and a lot of extra baggage expense.
Would there be anyone reading this list who could point them in the right direction? Know of any web sites for bike stores/ rentals in France? Had any experiences with getting bikes by second hand or rental?
If you can reply to me I will forward all e-mails with advice to my friends.
Thanks,
Gord Hunter
