  • I'd have to add, I found it incredibly difficult to get to sleep on the train. I think if I were doing it again, I'd get the train from Paris to somewhere like Montpellier or Narbonne and stay overnight in a hotel, then get the train down to Barcelona. And in your case, on to Valencia. While in theory you save on the hotel going by night train, in practice you barely get any real rest and certainly not the kind you'd want before a cycling event.

  • Given the time involved, might be as well to TGV down to the SW and then move on as you said. Perhaps a nice idea but not great in practice

  • This is why I usually end up flying. Most of the time the trains take way longer, don't take bikes without a fight and end up more expensive.

    What's the event? Maybe you could do a van trip with a group?
