If you are thinking if getting down to the Pyranees, either for this trip or for any other, then I know from the SV1000 site that Nigel's place (and his 'escorted' rides) comes highly recommended from everyone who has been there. The videos that I have see nof some of his rides are amazing

I have driven through the Pyranees a few times, and did Carcassone/Millau on the bike this year. Getting down to Nigel's place (near Perpignan) and hitting Spain/Andorra is still very much on my wish list, along with getting over to the Alps. My in-laws have a place near Bergerac which I could use as a stopover...

Hmmmm, 2 weeks in France - Bergerac, Perpignan for a few days, blat along the south coast, up through the Alps, Route Napoleon - I feel a plan coming on
