June 2016, Lisa and I traveled to the Algarve region of Portugal for a week of exploring before meeting up with Lynne and Clint in Saint Malo, France. John and Veronica from Brittany Borders Bicycling delivered the rental bikes to our hotel and held onto our surplus kit (www.brittanybordersbicycling.com). Highly recommended.
From Saint Malo we cycled south and west eventually intersecting the Nantes-Brest canal which we followed almost to Quimper and then on to Douarnenez on the Atlantic coast. We returned by rail via Rennes where we dropped off the bikes.
This was a great trip and distinctly different from our Austrian ride last year. Brittany has many long distance traffic free routes and quiet country roads. Great crepes and cider too!
Some snaps....
