    1. Greg

      The heat is back 🌞 midday pedal through the forest and along the vendée vélo gravel paths for a relaxing ride along the beach at La Tranche-Sur-Mer.

      Hardly a soul about, even though it's Saturday, all seems perfect with the world 🌍 just for a few minutes 🥰

    1. Super mellow ride along the vendée vélo gravel paths through the 🌳forest to Jard-Sur-Mer. Simply beautiful riding through the trees and along the coast🏄🏖 in the sunshine 🌞

      Called at a fruit & veg stall on the way back, picked up some fresh huîtres (oysters) and lemon 🦪🍋🍷😋

    1. Exploring "our" end of the forest this time, spotted several grape vines growing amongst the trees. We wondered how they got there?

      Popular with horseriders, there's a riding school & waymarked horse trails, bikes prohibited.

      Still sunny but thankfully not so hot made it more pleasant. Came across some

    1. Back with the MTB along the vendée vélo gravel paths for a play in the forest on the little VTT MTB Circuit I discovered earlier.

      Shaded by the trees, still hot especially getting through the soft sand patches, which are a feature of these forests by the sea. Probably much faster & easier in the winter.

    1. Exploring the vendée vélo bike specific gravel paths. A ride to Town and a visit to the beach, finished off with some moules frites and more vin 🍷.

    1. Ride through the forest on the vendée vélo gravel route and then back with a stunning evening ride along the water's edge. Finished with a cold beer and a few prawns with lemon and a garlic mayonnaise dip, watching the sun set.

    1. Another forest & beach walk, there's a continuous 10 miles of it in this stretch of the coast between La Tranche-sur-Mer and Jard-sur-Mer.

      With a sit down for a chocolate crêpe & ice-creams on the beach, what could be better?
