Hi, from Brittany, France.
Hi, we moved from England to France over 2 years ago. We are in a area just north of Plouay where everone is particularly keen on cycling. Its great here cycle races take prority over cars, they think nothing of closing the biggest of roads so a race can go through.

In 1989 was camping in Brittany, near Vannes, which is not far from you, and St Malo. Very nice - particularly the crepes.

Welcome to Bikeforums. I write from the state of Maine in the USA. It's good to hear from you.
I once vacationed in Northern France by spending three weeks bicycling across Normandy and Brittany in 1987. I had a wonderful time and hope that everything there is going well for you.
May there always be good riding conditions. See you in the BF community.

Does the Paris - Brest - Paris Brevet go through your area? Is there a drier season for riding?
