France, maybe Normandy area

[b the s]

We're going to Paris in May.  Wifey wants to spend 10 days in Paris - I want to ride AT LEAST 1 day (not in Paris).  I've found some renters. (Darcos, Holiday Bikes)  I've read some French.  I've sent some e-mails.  I'm still not sure if, as a non-resident, I can rent anything bigger than 50cc.

Any input?

BTW I am still alive.  Here's a pic of this years ride around Cape Breton Island.  Neither me or my bike are in the pic.

yurpeen bike shops that rent, are a lot more prevalent than on this side of the Atlantic.

Fire up yer Google. You're sure to find something  

Here's my 2008 trip to Britany & Normandy

Hey, how'd I miss that ride report?  I lived in Brittany (Rennes) for a while in college and the pics of Carnac and Mt St Michel brought me back.

Try this site for motorcycle rentals in France. I couldn't get the map to function, but the guy who put it together has done considerable legwork on rentals across France.

And if you can't get the map to work properly, contact him - Mike Werner.

Good Luck
