About this guide
The guide to discovering France by bike differently, with bakery stops that are part of the adventure.
30 pages, 8 foodie routes of 39.5 to 118 km in 8 regions, and 24 artisan bakeries chosen for their craftsmanship and local specialities. Country roads, vineyards, villages and coastline: ride them in a day or spread them over a weekend.
What you will find inside:
- 8 detailed routes: Île-de-France, Normandy, Brittany, Pays de la Loire, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Occitanie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Alsace
- For each route: distance, estimated time, level, elevation gain and points to watch
- Maps and QR codes to the Komoot routes, with advice on checking your GPX track
- 24 artisan bakeries with addresses, specialities and tips for timing your stops
- Specialities to taste along the way: sourdough bread, brioche vendéenne, kougelhopf…
- Advice on traffic, terrain, wind and weather specific to each route
- A bike safety section: visibility and good habits on the road
- A checklist for gear, repairs and clothing
- Useful apps (Smatchy, Komoot, FreeTaps, Warmshowers), product recommendations and Les Bornées perks with Alltricks
Who is it for? For cyclists who love discovering new roads as much as stopping for a good treat. Some routes are accessible with a little cycling experience, the longest ones call for more endurance or can be spread over several days.
