Emile / Gavin
Thanks for your advise.
I think I will look at renting a cycle in Barcelona. (I have not been able
to find a place in Venice) and I was leaning towards the Pyrenees areas
before I asked for advise and you guys have confirmed that for me.
Any suggestions on routes to take. accommodations, sites to see... etc ,
would be appreciated
