Bob, hoping to get some top-tips from you as regards your recent trip down to Southern France.
I am heading to Perpignan / Pyrenees area in mid September. Any routes, roads, etc you would recomend?
Any advice on Toll roads, ability of other drivers in general, attitude to bikes, etc. I have never driven in France before but have heard mixed reports.
Only plan to be in the Perpignan/ Carcassonne/ South East corner for about 5 days, so any help as regards places to see and where to go would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Leasky.
