SUMMER SUNSET, Acrylic, 16x16”

I'm planning on biking from Bordeaux to Biaritz this October over 8 days. I'm hoping to craft a great route that incorporates vineyards, chateaux, villages, and country roads as well as the sights and splendor of the coast.

I know there's a lot of formal routes and I'm an avid user of cycle.travel, but I'm looking for any seasoned tips from those that have biked through this area.

What are some areas that shouldn't be missed and what are some spots that can be skipped?

Cheers and thanks in advance!

Done. Let me know what you think? 🤔

I wanted to try something a little different. I hope you enjoy!
