Off to Brittany...

[Harvey Mushman]

Thanks to the help here on planning our (2) Wales trips we had a great time.

Now looking forward to a 2up spin in Brittany week after next. Accommodation is sorted near Plescop. Self catering so breakfasts are sorted.
Ferry will be Cork/Roscoff and back, planning on using Plescop as a base for the trip.
Will be allowing one full day off the bike to explore Vannes.
Otherwise looping day trips on bike exploring as much as is within a 4-5 hour timeframe (riding time). As little on dual carriageways as possible.

Have already marked in trips along the D767 and D785. D767 will most likely be part of the route from ferry to base. D785 on way back I think.
Have pencilled in a spin to Dinan with spot picked for lunch, and dinner somewhere on the way back to base.
Another day will be spent exploring the Gulf of Morbihan from Quiberon to Arzon and back to base.
Auray/St Goustan and possibly Pont Aven will be on the itinerary. Will try to get some of the Armorique in, most likely on spin back to ferry on last day. This could be dodgy, as time might run out on us.

Any must-dos or must-nots in these areas?
Foodie wise we will be avoiding the likes of andouillette and similar, while enthusiastically sampling as much Kouign-amann, gateau Breton and other such delicacies as we can get.....

Hmm, I suppose you are now on way south?

I assume you will be dining on the West Bank at the old harbour?
If you have not been there before then do not assume you can "just walk up" to the town - on a map it looks quite easy but on foot in m/c gear it will be a step too far.
Plenty of bikes park on the pavements around the main square. of the town above.

And plent of good roads all around to enjoy - let us see the views!
