Cycle touring in france

04/04/2016

RETIREMENT NOTICE! Having reached the grand old age to receive my UK pension, I have finally hung up my guiding helmet and gloves. Having had an immenslely enjoyable 10 years cycling in all four corners of France (and the middle) and had the pleasure of meeting some wonderful, interesting people from around the world, it is time bring the 'Grand Tours' to an end.
I will not be giving up bike riding altogether though - far from it - and I will still be representing Belle France for their lovely self-guided tours in my region, the Charente/North Dordogne.
I want to say a huge "Thank You" to everyone who has been on a tour, all the hotel staff that I have met and anyone else who has encouraged me along the way, I couldn't have done it without you - obviously!
In the meantime, if you are looking for a wonderful self-guided cycle tour in France, please contact me or visit www.bellefrance.co.uk and maybe I'll see you in the Charente!

Cheers, Roger xx

Would you like the comfort of your own personal French speaking guide full of local knowledge and know-how? With extras included such as daily entrance fees to the most interesting tourist attractions of the region and wine with every evening meal, then this is the holiday for you. Join like mind...
