Riding Through France Is a Magical Experience – And It’s Easier And More Affordable Than Ever If You Have The Insider Tips To Save Time And Money

Self guided and Group tours to the TDF and France will both provide you with that magical experience of the world’s most spectacular sporting event, as well as an amazing cycling trip in an amazing country.

Which one you decide on is all dependent upon how much time you have, whether you’re travelling alone, your budget & of course, whether you see the value of sitting back and having it all done for you.

The reality is that not everyone can afford (or wants to afford) several thousand on an organised tour, despite the convenience benefits. Additionally, some people really like organising trips for themselves.

So for those of you who fall into that category, I’ve taken all the hard work out of planning and researching your trip by putting everything you need to know in one comprehensive, handy, printable, guide to doing the Tour, L’Etape and cycling in France in general.

Here’s a review from CorsicaJourneys.com:

Think you need a load of money to enjoy a cycling vacation in France?

Then you need this guide. Whether you plan to follow one or several of the Tour de France stages or just leisurely pedal through the French countryside, this guide will save you countless hours of research and money.

Tim Marsh, its author, is not just an avid cyclist and snowboarder but also a hard-core flashpacker, who traveled from Australia carrying a DSLR camera, 3 lenses, his bicycle, laptop, iPod, and several chargers and adaptors, without losing his mind or any of his stuff.

Tim brings his intensity and attention to detail to everything he does. If he ever leads an expedition to Antarctica I want to be on his team.

This guide covers tips, tricks, pitfalls to watch out for and discusses everything you need to know to make sure that it’s as hassle-free and cost-effective as possible. It’s a comprehensive list of most things you’ll need to, or want to, know about following the Tour, doing L’Etape du Tour, or cycling around sunny France.

This guide is designed to make the planning and execution of your trip easy, hassle-free and cover all the angles, by showing you all the ins-and-outs and presenting the information you need, in one easy-to-read, single location.

After our 2009 trip to the Tour and L’Etape du Tour, I decided to write a thorough and exhaustive guide on all aspects of Touring with the Tour or doing L’Etape, to ensure those following us would be able to save time, money and hassle based on our experience.

Despite countless hours researching and planning this trip, there were still many pitfalls we were unaware and unprepared for. Some of them cost us hundreds of dollars, and in one case thousands.

Here’s What You’ll Discover When You Read Through The Pages Of This Ultimate Guide To Cycling In France
