Am arranging a week away with the family, which i hope to get a couple of days respite from and do a few lanes in Brittany. Is there any one in the region at this time up for the same (not the family hols bit though)?
Cheers

Be aware that Green Lanes as such do not exist in France. There are unsurfaced roads but often permission to use them is needed from the local Prefucture or Town Mayor.

Feel free to PM me if I can assist (but my French isnt very good either - despite living here!)... St Michel des Loups is just North of Avranches, about 30 minutes from me, so I may try to contact him myself at some point..
