Biking to Le Puy

Has anyone biked from slightly south of Paris (probably Melun) to Le Puy-en-Velay?

It looks like taking Véloroute des Pèlerins (EuroVelo 3) = La Scandibérique to Orleans, then taking the La Loire a velo to Le Puy might work.

Wondering about being able to avoid Orleans by heading directly south from the EuroVelo 3 to Briare and picking up the La Loire a velo at Briare? There don't appear to be any bike routes to do this - maybe decent roads with shoulders?

Any comments or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Have come the other way - up to Paris via Chartres, Loire valley and Parthenay. Plenty of small quiet roads - if u have a blue Michelin map! Good luck...
