One day in Paris

[marzjennings]

Actually we have 2 weeks vacation booked in Paris, but as the second day we're there is father's day the wife has asked what I want to do. So I'm thinking of renting a bike and going for a ride, but I have no idea where to go. We're staying near Sacre Coeur so I'll be looking for rides that maybe head north out of town, but I'd welcome any advice on good rides out or around Paris.

Cheers.

You can get into the forest paths really easily. Have a look at the final part of the London to Paris route on this site:

Cant recommend these guys highly enough.A bit costly but well worth,it. You might meet interesting characters on em(Some Russian ballet dancers where on mine,cycling is ok for them apparently..).You can hire the bike and DIY after too...Choice a several rides..Paris by day, then the night ride later on is a good combination.They meet under the Eiffel tour.Their out of city stuff includes.trips out to.Monets Gardens and Versaille.
