Yes, just not the first day! You can start with Bayonne Biarritz.

Hubby and I are heading to this area for a few days this year. Extra excited after seeing these pics 🙂 looks lovely . You guys put me to shame with all that exercise! X
We spent a couple of nights cycling in the Basque area last year. It was lovely, but my husband had convinced me that it wasn’t the real mountainous area we would be cycling in, so it wouldn’t be really steep and difficult. Let’s just say we agreed to disagree on the steepness! The cafe gourmand pic looks delicious – it’s one of my favourites.

I see you’re a cyclist too! I think the most strenuous cycling holiday I’ve ever been on was along the far west coast of Brittany. A real challenge especially as I still had a 3-gear bike!
Wow, I’m always impressed by your cycling trips. I loved seeing your photos from the area – I stayed in St Jean de Luz for 4 days this past May. The photos of the path along the ocean are so gorgeous! Looks like quite an adventure 🙂

Thank you! You know, I didn’t become a real cyclist until I was well past your age. I think each part of our lives corresponds to certain needs and wants. Maybe you’ll take up cycling in 20 years time.
LOL I can’t believe all of this happened in one day! You are pretty tough to do all the cycling! I go to Holland this week, and I am NOT in shape for the cycling I will have to do just to get around! What a crazy day, and I think we can all agree that we are happy you were able to get some pretty pictures after all!

Our cycling days are action packed! Hope you enjoy your cycling in Holland. At least it’s flat …
I’m tempted. even with the hills!

There are plenty of places to rent bikes!

Cycling, fine,as long as it’s in the Landes – lovely and flat!
Ah, but not as interesting!
I’m so impressed with your cycling Rosemary, around where I live is very hilly and I can’t manage at all. I love riding along the flat of the coast but hills and me just don’t go together. We just had a lovely cycle ride in and around Dresden, along the Elbe…which was flat! Another place I like to cycle is the Ile de Ré…again..flat! With excellent cycle paths far from the road. It may be flat but it’s very pretty, if you haven’t been I highly recommend it. I’ve been to St Jean de Luz once and loved it: it rained, we went to the maritime coop and visited everywhere by car! Thanks for linking up to #AllAboutFrance again.
Phoebe, it took me a while to build up to my present level and I preferred flat bike paths before as well! I’ve cycled on Ile de Ré and really enjoyed it.
