Hi all, I am taking a holiday at the end of July :-). We are driving to provence :-)There are too many of us to make it possible to take bikes with....
However, we will be in a village called Roussillon which, I gather is near the Luberon a great place to ride.

My question is; does anyone know where my brother in law and I should hire some bikes and any tips on where to take them. we are there for 7 days and can sneak out for a decent ish ride on 2-3 days.

All advice (yeah yeah!) gratefully received.

i have never been riding only climbing but there are bike shops in apt, as is the distributor for santa cruz (race company). there is a guide to the area and it would appear that there is riding both north and south of apt. There is an area (colorado) that featured in loads of the early bike videos, this is just near St Saturine de apt North of the main town.

The saturday market at apt was a must visit back in the day, a proper freak show of local hippys.
