A month of riding through France during a couple of heatwaves for the fun of it. It was at times really hard, but I met the kindest people and saw the most beautiful places (these photos are only the smallest part).
I initially wanted to follow the Brest to Nantes canal, but in Normandy I met a Breton cyclist who gave me a lot of advice on where to go, and also told me I couldn't miss the Crozon peninsula. I followed all of his tips, and 15 days later I met him in Vannes and had a wonderful lunch with his family. I truly think he made my trip better, and I'll always be thankful.
Aside from that, getting there and going back by train was a nightmare, Bretagne is breathtaking, speaking a bit of French gave me the opportunity to have interactions and conversations that will be my favourite memories. And above all, I only got so far because of people helping me, from the very first to the last day.
