Cycling La Vélodyssée

In 2025 we had a wonderful experience cycling the Pacific Coast Highway from the Canadian border to the Mexican border, and wanted to find another ride slightly closer to home this year. We are cycling La Vélodyssée, from Roscoff to Hendaye, largely following the west coast of France (there’s something of a pattern with west coasts!).  La Vélodyssée is the French part of the Euro Velo 1 route which runs from the far north of Norway all the way to Portugal – some 11,000Km … we will be doing approximately 900 miles/1,500Km over about four weeks before returning home from Bilbao – a couple of days ride from Hendaye into Spain.

We thoroughly enjoyed having the company of family and friends on the ride last year as you all followed our blog, and we will be posting each day during the ride. Do please follow!

    We will be posting photos and notes about each day’s riding, to share the journey and adventure with our family, friends and anyone who’s interested. We posted some of the same content on Facebook in case that’s easier to follow but there are key people in our lives don’t use Facebook so this blog site has solved that little conundrum.
