Paris = Cobbles and hills. And a lot more crazy scooters to worry about. But I found it fine.
Avignon has a few busy roads but is mostly quiet.
Now for a messy place to ride, try Athens, Greece.
Went very well, Eurostar fine on the way out. Needed to bag just on to the train. Coming back had to bag before check in and carry around in the 95degree heat of thursday.
Grey Paris - Tuesday. Some of the road junctions - you really need your wits about you. Traffic from 5 directions and poor signalling
Avignon is wonderful
Ardeche - Roads too busy and narrow - not bike friendly
