Cycling - A Vélo ![]() © Michel Joly Whether you choose to make cycle rides from your base locally or go on a fully fledged cycling holiday, Burgundy has much to offer. You can plan your own route, go on a following a set itinerary, or a take a fully escorted trip. Going It Alone If you enjoy planning the route, going it alone gives you ultimate flexibility and a greater sense of adventure. You don't have the luxury of your luggage being transported for you (see below) but of course, you have far greater freedom of choice. Taking your own bike ![]() France is a bike-friendly place and travelling on French trains is easy. There is a lot of useful information on this on www.velo.sncf.com. You can take your bike on trains marked with a bicycle in the timetable and some TGVs allow you to take a bike free of charge or for the modest sum of 10 euros..

Your luggage is transported for you and you travel at your own pace, stopping off for a lazy lunch, to view a château or taste a glass of wine next to the vineyard.
