    Hi, We are flying in from South Africa with our bicycles and would like to store our bike bags close to Paris. Trying to set up hotel reservations at the same place for first and last evening and hopefully they will be willing to store the bags for us. Any other suggestions? Marie

    Hi, new to all this. My friend and I want to cycle from Le Puy using the actual hiking paths rather than tar roads. We will be bringing our own mountain bikes and have done multistage mountain biking before all over South Africa. From some websites I gather more people use tar roads near the...
