Public Announcement...

2026 will see our last Breton Bikes group trip starting 30th August. For the last 30 odd years we've run a special trip at the end of every season. This year we'll run our final group trip in Brittany and old customers will be given priority for places on it. A relatively lazy two weeks wandering first to the South, then up to the North coasts visiting many old haunts and largely replicating out 10th anniversary trip - a lovely swan-song I hope;-)

Can't believe another season (no.36!) is scudding into view. We've been out on our bikes vigorously checking routes and those little lunchtime restaurants - not sure whether that's going to cause a net gain in my weight but it's a job someone has to do...

A very Happy new Year from Kate and I at Breton Bikes to all our friends, past and future customers - see you all out on the road!

Well the heros of the 2025 Led trip to Finistere survived 80km winds, downpours and the punishing schedule of 560km and 6000m of climbing;-) Inbetween we ate too much, drank too much (obviously not you Sherry) and laughed too much. Great trip and hardened me up for Kate and me heading off to the Pyrenees next week...

Just got back from a fabulous 10-day cycle camping tour in the Auvergne. Just to prove that at 65 the hills aren't too much. Breton Bikes was set up to promote this sort of tour - the kind we do ourselves and we're as enthusiastic as ever. There's a detailed route map for those wishing to follow the same path - it's a lovely introduction to the area.

Cycle paths like the Nante-Brest canal are wonderful, but please - don't be afraid to ride the country lanes of Brittany - you'll be missing so much if you don't - https://www.bretonbikes.com/homepage/cycling-article-blog/207-try-country-lanes-for-your-cycling-holiday-here-in-france
