Je souhaite me lancer dans un voyage à vélo d'environ 15 jours, en alternant vélo et visites. Mais il y a quelques points sur lesquels je m'interroge :
- Quelles sont les routes possibles à vélo ? L'histoire de ne pas se perdre
- Comment faire pour partir de Paris (vers Blois/Tours)
- Les campings sont-ils une bonne solution pour la nuit ? (Ne faut-il pas plus de confort à cause de la fatigue ?
- Côté vêtements, comment fait-on ?
- Pique-nique ou déjeuner sur place ?
- GPS utile ou non ?
- Quels vélos choisir ?

Autrement, en utilisant le moteur de recherche (situé en haut à droite de ce site : Rechercher), tu trouveras pas mal de sujets, + ou -+ récents répondants à tes questions.
bonjour, je viens de faire la méridienne verte et je peux te donner quelques réponses personnelles:
- pour sortir de Paris, il y a les voies vertes; j'ai visité Paris le samedi de pentecôte en prenant les voies sur le canal st martin, le canal de l'ourcq et je suis sorti par les voies le long de l'Orge vers epinay sur orge, puis les voies le long de la loire; achètes le livret sur les voies vertes;
- les campings, très bien, il y a aussi les auberges de jeunesse: voir fuaj;
- côté vêtement, ne pas trop te charger, mais casque et vêtement de pluie;
- pique nique le midi et sur place le soir;
- pas de GPS? CHACUN SON AVIS.
- vélo, fonction du budget, mais un porte bagage costaud!!! après voir si tu fais de la montagne ou pas?
pour un premier voyage, ne te ruines pas, mais prends un vélo adapté à ta taille, très important;
pour le reste, fais des recherches, tu trouveras beaucoup de conseils et il existe au CCI un livre sur les conseils pour voyage à vélo, çà aide;
bon voyage;
Comme dit ci-dessous tu trouveras une bonne partie de tes réponses mais je peux quan même t'apporter "mes" solutions à tes questions. En effet chacun à ses façons de faire.
- Quelles sont les routes possibles à vélo ? L'histoire de ne pas se perdre
Utiliser Mappy (ou GoogleMap) et des cartes routières. Les routes sont d'une certaine couleur pour montrer si elles sont passantes (en rouge dans mon cas) ou pas (en blanc). Avec ça tu peux préparer ton parcours (en avance ou au fil de l'eau c'est à toi de voir). Dans tous les cas il faut prendre les cartes des endroits où tu comptes passer. En effet même si tu comptes préparer tu circuit à l'avance, tu n'es pas à l'abri d'une inattention qui te fera louper une bifurcation ... et qui te fera aller dans un endroit non prévu. J'en sais quelque chose🙂. Pour ma part j'ai un bouquin des cartes routières de France. Quand je part je fais des photocopies des parties qui m'intéressent pour ne pas avoir à trimballer le bouquin. Par ailleurs après avoir tracé mon parcours sur les photocopies je les plastifie car la 1ère fois je ne l'ai pas fait et mes photocopies était en mauvais état dès la 2 ou 3ème utilisation (surtout si la pluie s'en mêlait).
Comment faire pour partir de Paris (vers Blois/Tours)
N'habitant pas Paris même mais étant en région parisienne (à côté de l'aéroport d'Orly) je prends le RER pour commencer d'un endroit plus calme. En effet lors de mes deux premières sorties en cyclocamping je suis parti de chez moi et j'ai trouvé la partie jusqu'à la francilienne pas du tout intéressante (même si j'ai l'habitude d'y circuler le dimanche). Comme pour le moment je ne suis parti que vers le sud je ne suis parti que de St Martin d'Etampes (terminus sud ligne C) ou de Malesherbes (terminus sud ligne D). L'avantage du terminus c'est que tu as le temps pour descendre ton vélo et tes affaires. La gare de Malesherbes à l'avantage de ne pas avoir d'escalier et il est très facile d'en partir par une petite route. Par ailleurs le temps que je gagne en RER me permet de faire plus de vélos dans des endroits bien plus intéressants que la région parisienne.
- Les campings sont-ils une bonne solution pour la nuit ? (Ne faut-il pas plus de confort à cause de la fatigue ?
Si tu as un matelas et un sac de couchage correct le camping n'empêche pas un bon repos ... surtout qu'en camping tu as t'endance à te coucher plus tôt. Pour ce qui est du bruit, je n'ai pas eu plus de gênes que dans un hôtel. Après si tu n'aimes pas le camping la effectivement une chambre d'hôte ou un hôtel seront plus approprié.
- Côté vêtements, comment fait-on ?
Lors de mes premières sorties de 15j, je prenais plein d'affaires pour ne pas avoir à faire de lessives. Depuis cette année je prends de la lessive mais beaucoup moins d'affaires (pour lavage à la main, lorsque petite lessive, et qques pastilles pour pouvoir utiliser les machines des camping lors de lessives plus importantes) et c'est beaucoup mieux comme ça. Je prends quand même des tenues de rechange en cas de pb pour sécher. S'il ne pleut pas les affaires sèchent très bien en roulant, évidemment si tu les étales bien et que tu les laissents à l'extérieur pendant que tu roules. Pour ma part j'ai pris 3 cuissards (mais je me suis rendu compte que 2 peuvent suffir si tu accèptent de ne nettoyer ton cuissard qu'après 2 jours d'utilisation)
- Pique-nique ou déjeuner sur place ?
Si tu compte faire ta popote il est très facile de trouver une supérette ou une boulangerie sur la route pour acheter de quoi manger. Cependant il me semble quand même préférable d'avoir en stock 1 journée d'avance de nourriture au cas où.
GPS utile ou non ?
Ce n'est pas inutile mais pour ma part pas encore franchit le pas car il faut le recharger régulièrement (si tu l'utilise la journée, au moins tous les 2 jours d'après des potes qui en ont un). Si tu es en hotel ou chambre d'hôtes pas de pb mais si tu es en camping c'est plus problématique (même en prenant l'électricité ... qui peut engendrer un surcoût non négligeable / prix de l'emplacement seul).
- Quels vélos choisir ?
Question très difficile à répondre ... surtout en ne sachant pas si tu comptes pour le moment rester en France, si tu ne comptes faire que de la route ou si tu envisages des portions de chemin, etc. Pour ma part j'ai commencé avec ... le vélo que j'avais ... à savoir le vélo de route que j'utilise le dimanche. Les gens à qui j'en avais parlé était dubitatif mais ce vélo permettant de fixer un porte bagage à l'arrière et des personnes plus imposantes que moi utilisant les même roues sans soucis je me suis quand même lancé ... et eu aucun pb. Je ne comptais pas acheter un nouveau vélo tout de suite pour voir si ça allait vraiment me plaire. Après 3 essais concluants je me suis décidé à acheter une vraie randonneuse, quand même plus adaptée pour ce type d'utilisation, qui me permet de sortir de la route (même si je fais à 90% de route) et surtout qui permet de pouvoir charger sur la fourche avant (et ne pas avoir une montagne sur le porte bagage arrière).
Pour les sacoches
Je rajoute le pb des sacoches car il me semble aussi très important. Comme évoqué sur ce forum, l'utilisation d'un sac à dos est déconseillée ... et après avoir testé je suis parfaitement d'accord. Pour le choix des sacoches il faut à mon sens vérifier si le système d'accroche est fiable et pratique. En effet je suis confronté à ce pb sur mes sacoches arrière que j'ai acheté en 1er. Si je n'ai pas eu pour le moment de pb de cassure, le système d'accroche n'est pas verrouillable (sur mauvaise route ou chemin il faut les sangler sinon elles se barrent) et rend plus diffcile la mise en place des sacoches sur un porte bagage surbaissé. Si vous comptez prendre une sacoche avant vous pouvez prendre directement du haut de gamme et vous ne le regretterez pas car c'est une sacoche que vous pouvez utiliser même juste pour des sorties d'une journée (idéale pour avoir la carte tout le temps sous les yeux, mettre le casse croute, etc) et que c'est la sacoche que vous solliciterez le plus lors des sorties sur plusieurs jours (facilement accessible, facilement détachable pour garder les abjets de valeur sur soi lors de visite, etc).
Par ailleurs en prenant le RER ou le train avec mon vélo et les sacoches, je me suis rendu compte qu'une une sacoche avec bandouillère c'était un vrai plus. Je peux d'autant plus comparer que mes sacoches arrères en sont dépourvues et que mes sacoches avant, que j'ai acheté après, en sont pourvues.
Ca fait quelques temps que j'avais cette idée en tête mais je crois que cette fois je vais me lancer. Je pense partir une 15aine de jours (voir plus, à…

I’m planning to cycle from Morlaix to Brest (via Roscoff and the V45 coastal route). We’ll start riding on August 16th for 13 days (with stops for island visits, surfing, etc.). Is there a lot of traffic at this time of year? I’ve got two kids, 11 and 13, and we don’t like riding in the middle of cars (we’ve already done the Vélomaritime—Caen to Cherbourg—the Loire route from Orléans to Saumur, the Vélodyssée from Nantes to Royans, and the canals like the Nivernais and Bourgogne, where there were plenty of bike-only lanes, which isn’t the case on this route).
Thanks for your help if you’ve already done this route in late August!

I’ve got my flight ticket sorted—departing in mid-November and returning in mid-March. I’ll arrive in Santiago and leave from Buenos Aires.
I’ve already been to southern Argentina, specifically Torres del Paine National Park, and I’d love to go back to do the full W trek (I only did the shorter version last time).
I also want to do some hiking and maybe even tackle a summit. I climb and occasionally do some mountaineering, so I’ll definitely be going with a guide.
I plan to start around Temuco in Chile, with the idea of heading toward the lakes, then taking the Carretera Austral.
I’m not sure if I’ll go all the way to Ushuaia—it’s supposed to not be *that* worth it, except for the bragging rights of saying you’ve been to the end of the world.
I saw there are lakes in Argentina too.
I don’t have a precise itinerary, but what I’d love is, once I reach the southernmost point of my trip, to take a mini-cruise to see some wildlife. Any tips for that?
What kind of sleeping bag did you take? Is a 0°C (32°F) one enough?
And one last question: white gas stove or can I get by with my gas stove?
Hi there,
I’ve been road cycling for several years, and I’m about to switch to gravel in the next few days—I’m waiting for my bike, which should arrive this week.
I’m planning a bikepacking trip in a few weeks along the Véloroute V81, also known as the Vélosud, from Biarritz to Le Barcarès.
Has anyone here already done this route? Any info is welcome, whether it’s about the route itself, gear, or accommodation. I’ll prioritize staying with locals as much as possible. On that note, I just signed up for the brand-new site *Guidon et Couette* ((www.guidon-et-couette.fr)), which offers free accommodation between cyclists across the country, but there’s almost no one listed along my route!
Thanks in advance.
Laurent.
I'm developing a free and open-source web app for planning walking and cycling trips (and even car trips). You can create a route by clicking directly on the map to add waypoints, and it can consist of multiple stages. The app provides tools to edit the stages and the overall route, and to display useful information (distances, altitudes, and elevation changes). A relief profile can be shown as a graph for a specific stage or the entire route.
Once the route is ready, it can be exported as a GPX file, which can then be used with a GPS or a mobile navigation app.
The app is built in JavaScript and runs entirely in the web browser. It uses the Leaflet library and several OpenStreetMap-based services. Initially developed for my personal needs (I enjoy hiking and cycle touring), I’d be happy to share it with anyone who might find it useful. It’s free to use, doesn’t require an account, and the source code is available.
After testing it for three years across various modes of transport, I’m sharing this video of a bike packing case. It’s made from recycled cardboard and shrink-wrapped, with adjustable thickness and added bubble wrap depending on the level of protection you want.
Installing spacers at the fork and chainstays makes the packaging compact. With the fifteen-odd euros for shrink-wrapping at the airport, this case travels really well.
https://youtu.be/_GDJi-GqmkM
- Low bulk (1.10m x 0.70m x 0.25m for a large frame), it fits vertically in train luggage compartments and the total dimensions (x+y+z) don’t exceed 2.40m.
- Two carrying solutions for public transport and easy handling by airport staff (no more tears in the cardboard from openings).
- Discreet packaging when dealing with bus drivers and train conductors, as it looks like an ordinary parcel.
- No need to return to the starting point to retrieve the case from your outbound trip, which you’d otherwise have to store somewhere, or deal with a bulky cover to pack in your panniers.
- You can still check tire pressure through the plastic film without damaging the packaging too much.
Drawbacks: Around 3 hours for this lengthy and meticulous process—removing the wheels, pedals, handlebars, and derailleur without misaligning them, then securing all components to the frame.
If you get a chance to test it, send me your feedback for future improvements.
Hi there, I’m planning a cross-Canada bike trip, and I’ve got a question that might seem silly, but could someone tell me how to pack a bike (in a box, with a fragile sticker... I don’t know) for a flight? Thanks in advance!
This summer, we’re planning to cycle along the EV 19 that follows the Meuse River from Langres all the way to Rotterdam.
My question is about getting back to Nantes.
Do any of you know what the best return option might be? I’d love to hear about your experiences.
I saw that FlixBus doesn’t take bikes.
By train, I think it’s possible but would involve multiple local trains.
We were also wondering if there’s a boat from Rotterdam to Saint-Nazaire that could take passengers with bikes.
Any tips or experiences you can share would be really helpful—thanks in advance!
Have a great evening
I’ve gotten used to crossing Europe by bus to return by bike.
It was really convenient to take the bike without having to disassemble it.
But FlixBus no longer accepts bikes...
What alternatives do you know about?
Thanks.
Hi there,
I’m planning to ride the Dutch section of the EuroVelo 19, from Maastricht to Rotterdam.
Since it’s too complicated to bring my bike on the train, I’m looking to rent one locally.
I’d love any tips or bike rental shop recommendations—I’m struggling to find options even in Rotterdam.
The plan is to rent in Rotterdam, take the train to Maastricht with the bike, then cycle back to Rotterdam.
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions!

I’m planning to build a new touring bike.
I want to prioritize lightness.
That said, I’m tempted by a suspension fork that could offer some comfort on rougher roads.
The recent appearance of gravel suspension forks on the market might meet my needs—at least on paper.
I’m particularly considering the RockShox Rudy Ultimate XPLR fork.
Unlike MTB forks, its travel is short: either 30 mm or 40 mm.
It weighs 1400 g, which is 400/500 g more than a steel fork.
Any thoughts or real-world feedback on this?
I’m also wondering about the durability of magnesium (lower leg) for long-distance bike touring.
And what’s the impact of skipping the manufacturer-recommended maintenance every 50 and 200 hours? That’s bound to happen on a long trip unless you carry extra gear.
More generally, how reliable are these kinds of forks?
I’m making an exception and creating a separate post this time, since it’s all about France. In May, we spent a week in Provence, specifically in the Luberon, exploring the cycling routes *Autour du Luberon à Vélo*, the *Véloroute du Calavon* (part of EuroVelo 8), and the shorter *Les Ocres à Vélo* route. Together, they gave us an amazing journey through rolling hills, vineyards, lavender fields still green in spring, and some of the most stunning landscapes in southern France.
It was, of course, the perched villages that impressed us the most. We visited Gordes, Roussillon, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Lourmarin, Ménerbes, Oppède-le-Vieux, Cucuron, and Lauris. Many of them are among the most beautiful villages in Provence, and it’s hard not to agree with that reputation.
One interesting point is the route of EuroVelo 8 in this part of the region. The official path mainly follows the old railway line of the *Véloroute du Calavon*, which is very comfortable and safe. But in our opinion, cyclists traveling EuroVelo 8 around the Mediterranean would discover even more treasures if the route passed through villages like Bonnieux, Lacoste, or Oppède-le-Vieux.
We were also pleasantly surprised by how safe cycling felt. Most of the route takes small local roads, but traffic is light, drivers are respectful, and road design really takes cyclists into account. It’s one of those places where you can ride peacefully even without separated bike lanes.

Hi there, we’re planning a Munich to Venice bike trip at the end of June 2026. Getting back from Venice to Toulouse by train with 4 bikes isn’t straightforward. What return options have others who’ve done this trip chosen? Any tips or great deals would be much appreciated. Thanks a bunch! !
Hi everyone,
Happy owner of a Pegasus Estremo bike with a Rohloff hub, which is giving me trouble with the SF11-NCX-FT-E-LITE 700C TS 300/0 fork (serial number TD01329060). It’s starting to show its age, and I’d like to repair it to extend the life of my beloved bike.
The suspension is gone, and there’s an oil leak from the seals.
Does anyone know how to repair it? Where can I find parts that are about fifteen years old? Or where to find an identical replacement fork? Just to clarify, the Magura HS11 brakes are mounted using Firm Tech, meaning they’re on pivots behind the fork, facing the frame.
Hi, I'd like to know if anyone has done this route recently or has reliable info.
Does the track exist, and most importantly, is there sand (for biking)?
Any info is welcome.
Cheers,

Hi there,
New to bike touring,
I’d love to start with a section of the Via Rhona to explore and share (route to be decided).
Looking forward to exchanging tips!
I’m landing in Madagascar with a buddy before the end of April 2026. We’re planning to bike around for about twenty days or so. We don’t have a specific goal other than exploring the country and meeting the locals.
Ideally, we’d prefer a loop route starting from Antananarivo with a good chunk of it along the coast. On the bike side, we’re used to riding 6 to 8 hours a day, depending on the needs, encounters, and mood 😉 Any feedback or tips from trips around this length?
A big thank you to Lazarou for all the info you share in this forum!
I'm passionate about Morocco, which I cycled through back in 2009.
Last year, my wife and I explored the High Atlas by tandem. Completely smitten, we're heading back in April (Anti Atlas) and May (High and Middle Atlas), still on our tandem.
Do you have any info on the track between Amezri and Ali Ait Nito? Are the river crossings in the Tessaout still there? It's not easy to navigate with a loaded tandem... especially if the river level is high due to this year's heavy snowmelt!
Thanks in advance for any tips you might have, and best wishes for health in this new year!

First of all... happy New Year! Wishing you great roads in 2017!
I’ve been traveling for a few years now with a high-quality mountain bike, but it’s equipped with hydraulic disc brakes. I live (pedal) with the constant worry of a breakdown (leak, air bubble, heat causing the fluid to...). My bike mechanic tells me it’s impossible to switch them out for V-brakes.
What do you all think? Am I taking a big risk continuing (alone) with these brakes? Thanks in advance for your great tips!
First post here to share a quick recap of our west-to-east bike trip along Algeria’s coast in January 2025.
It was just the two of us—my partner and I—with French passports and not a word of Arabic. No friends or welcoming hosts in the country.
Under those conditions, we’d strongly advise against going.
Our original plan was to follow the coast from Algiers to Tunis. We ended up cycling from Algiers to Béjaia, then took the train from Béjaia to Annaba (with a stop in Constantine), and finally biked to the border.
We were tailed by police the whole way—whether on our bikes, on the train, or even on foot while exploring towns. On top of that, we couldn’t wild camp and were limited to the few state-approved hotels that accept foreigners. Under those circumstances, connecting with locals was especially tough.
With such an omnipresent and intrusive police presence, we’d definitely recommend against this destination for bike touring. A really sad situation that completely cuts you off from the local population...
We’d been warned, we went to check it out, and we weren’t disappointed!
Hi there,
I’m planning the route to cycle from Lille to Nordkapp with my partner.
Duration: 3 months, from May 1st to July 31st, 2026.
In the attached details below, I need to add some "non-riding" days (rest days, basically).
So I’m looking to "shorten" the trip by taking ferries or trains for some stretches. Which areas could I skip?
Thanks in advance for your great tips.
Have a good evening.

Just a few words about the loop I did by bike in Yunnan.
Entry and exit
I entered China through the Sino-Vietnamese border crossing at Lào Cai / Hekou under the 30-day visa exemption currently available to French nationals and others.
The process was simple and quick. A Chinese police officer even helped me complete my electronic pre-registration at a computer kiosk. I wasn’t aware this formality was required—it’s similar to Thailand’s TM6.
No issues with the bike.
I left the country via the Sino-Laotian border crossing at Mohan / Boten.
The atmosphere was a bit chaotic there, but again, no problems with the bike.
The timing
I visited Yunnan in February 2026.
Weather-wise, at higher altitudes (between 1,500 and 2,000 meters), it was around ten degrees at night and in the mornings, and around twenty degrees at the hottest part of the day.
I had two days of rain, so I took the bus to keep moving. Otherwise, clear blue skies.
Culturally, Chinese New Year fell on February 17th (and the 15 days following), right in the middle of my trip. Because of this, my take on the traffic might be off.
Accommodation and food
I always found a hotel to stay in for prices ranging from 8 to 15 €. Except in Kunming (the capital), where many hotels were fully booked (Chinese New Year). I ended up at a 100 € hotel with great value for money.
A bowl of noodles costs about 1.5 € on average.
Onboard electronics
Since my smartphone doesn’t support eSIMs, I subscribed to a China plan with my carrier. Otherwise, for much cheaper, Alipay offers eSIMs for foreigners that allow access to services usually blocked for Chinese users (WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.).
An internet connection is essential for paying with Alipay or WeChat, as this payment method is widespread.
I only managed to use Alipay.
Either way, always carry cash because sometimes there’s no signal, or the merchant only accepts WeChat.
Also, it’s best to bring a power adapter when you arrive rather than struggling to find one.
Traffic and roads
The Chinese aren’t reckless drivers. They follow traffic rules and watch out for cyclists. This is slightly less true in Xishuangbanna (the region bordering Myanmar and Laos).
In urban areas, there are almost always wide bike lanes, separated from other roads, where bikes, electric mini-scooters, and scooters share the space pretty harmoniously.
The roads are in great condition, and traffic is generally manageable—even light—except for one stretch (Eshan -> Yangwu).
Most traffic is absorbed by expressways, China’s equivalent of highways: toll roads that are off-limits to slow vehicles.
You’re never far from these expressways; sometimes you even ride alongside them, which can be noisy at times.
The climbs are usually reasonable, around 5% to 6%. From what I remember, the steepest section was between Menglun and Mengla, with gradients of 8% to 10%, sometimes more.
Riding at these altitudes—though modest—took a bit of getting used to.
The route
I didn’t plan anything in advance. My only goal was to reach Kunming. I don’t know why, but just hearing the name of that city, like Yunnan, always felt dreamy to me.
