2018 Cycle Ride to Brittany - Routes

2018 Cycle Ride to Brittany: 

St Malo - Rochefort-en-Terre – Carnac – Dinan - St Malo

This was our second cycle ride directly to Brittany. It was modelled on our 2017 trip. We sailed overnight to St Malo from Portsmouth to start the tour. 

We wanted to explore further into Brittany and this time we had a target of visiting Carnac the site of the Mesolithic stones in southern Brittany. Like our previous trips, we had largely good weather for the whole trip with only one afternoon where it rained (though pretty heavily!). This was a 7-day cycle trip and there were 4 of us.  To begin our trip we took the train from St Malo to Rennes. This allowed us extra time for the rest of the route as cycling to Rennes alone would have taken a day on its own. As it was the rail journey was about an hour so we arrived in Rennes to commence our journey before midday. I hope to publish a description of the tour but for now here are the routes and distances:
