Provence

Provence by bike is a scratch-and-sniff painting: lavender around Sault in July, vines and ochre cliffs near Roussillon, plane-tree avenues strobing overhead.

About this place

The Luberon's waymarked loops link hilltop villages close enough that no day needs to exceed 40 kilometres, though the climbs into them are honest — this is the one trip where the e-bike upgrade earns its money. Mont Ventoux will loom on the horizon; you are under no obligation. Markets replace museums here, so shop accordingly.
