Hello I'm a newbie on this forum. I'd like to ask some advice on how to get to bordeaux for my first and long awaited bike tour.
I live near Portsmouth and my dream is to ride there and jump on a ferry. I'm trying to look at train's to bordeaux then just have a week pedalling about the wine region nothing too challenging in terms of speed a distance.
So far I've discovered a route to St Malo and had previously thought le harvre. Found a link to train line but not sure even after reading the stuff on the website how I can be sure I'll be able to take my own fully assembled bike on them using the search form. It seems quite complex working that out.
Please can any of you experienced tourers help?
I'm no stranger to planning solo ski trips on a limited budget but I've always wanted to take my bike away and just ride around exploring. I'm not out for a physical challenge, just some downtime at cruising pace enjoying the food and wine.
Absolutely any advice would be welcome. Thank you for reading and your suggestions.
