A bit late to the party but may I post the following?:
May 2019:
1.Carsac - Souillac and back along Dordogne valley (France) 32 miles
2. L'Abbaye Nouvelle - Rocque Gageac - Castlenaud and back along the valley of the Ceou.(France) 34 miles
3. Our caravan to Souillac and back via St Julian de Lampon. (France) 33 miles
4. Gravel tracks, byways and paths along Dordogne valley. (France) 32 miles
August 2019:
1. Penzance - Hayle via Nancegollan and Praze-an Beeble. 32 miles
2. Bissoe Trail to Portreath and then home via Carnon Downs. 35 miles
September 2019:
1. More gravel biking along Dordogne valley. (France) 32 miles
2. Ile D'Oleron north end. ( second largest island in France) 40 miles
3. Ile D'Oleron south end . 48 miles
If someone can tell me how to embed Strava tracks, I can add those. Anyone interested in cycling along the Dordogne valley or the Ile D'Oleron in France, get in touch. I can suggest pleasant bumbling routes of 30-40 miles and usually less than 2000 feet of uphill and often much less. The Ile D'Oleron is a cycling paradise. Beaches, cycle trails, vineyards, cafes. It is possible to cycle everywhere on designated trails and its pretty flat. Ideal for families and the person who enjoys the flatter things in life. And oysters.
Now I need to do 50k in Cornwall for October. Sixteen days left..........
