France Bike Tours

France's Bordeaux region had its own historic battle for independence - specifically over its fertile vineyards. Cycle through famous bordeaux vineyards, eat the trademark macaroons, drink the nectar of St.Emillion, and sleep in a 17th century chateau.

The Loire Valley is an enchanted land of vineyards, gardens and rolling green hills dotted with more than a thousand chateaux. Tour castles, explore hidden caves and play in fields of sunflowers. Cycling in the Loire region is rated easy – as the terrain consists of mostly flat rides along the river banks with occasional short hills up to the plateau.

Provence - the name itself evokes images of lavender fields, olive trees, the aroma of rosemary and sage, goat cheese, and pastis. Life at an easier pace. Bike alongside vestiges of ancient Roman architecture - such as the 19 BC Pont de Gard, explore the Les Baux fortress carved in the limestone cliffs and the medieval hilltop villages.

Join DuVine on the ride of a lifetime. More than a bike tour, this is a cycling tour de force. Climb and dine, descend and attend, witness and fitness all in one. This is your chance to watch the drama unfold in front of you - and perhaps, attempt a stage climb of your own. Our 2011 TDF Pyrenees tour will provide a uniquely intimate and interactive perspective on the race for the “maillot jeune” and the epic battle between Contador and Schleck.
