    On a nice day this is a brilliant activity, unusual and fun. Make sure you have some strong people with you though as you have to lift the (heavy) bike-train off the track when someone is coming the other way! (AP)

    Great fun but make sure you have lots of energy to make it back. The Velo takes you over a lovely viaduct and you can stop off and have a picnic en route. This Velo is bout 3km long but if you fancy more of a challenge there is also a Velo at Bagnoles de l’Orne which is around 8km. (Yasmeen Moore)
