Itinerary
Friday night: Catching the (11pm) ferry from Newhaven, we sail through the night to Dieppe.
Saturday: An early start will deliver us into the quiet French countryside, where we get to enjoy some wonderful empty trails and a quiet sunrise as you weave your way southwards towards the 'city of love'. The Rough Ride Guide team will be on-hand throughout, with support riders and vehciles, providing amazing refreshments and support all the way. After 130km/80 miles we finally finish the fun (for today) in a town on the banks of the river Seine, where our bike-friendly hotel awaits, with a lovely, and much deserved 3-course meal and good nights sleep.
Sunday: More wonderful riding awaits us today, with both scenic tracks beside the Seine, to fun forests and beautiful royal parks for lots of off-road, traffic-free riding right to the foot of the Eiffel Tower. There will be time for a few photos and a bite to eat before we transport you (and your bike) back to Dieppe in comfort, ready to catch the overnight ferry back to England, arriving back in Blighty on Monday morning.
